&#;Erja Lyytinen – The Blues Queen&#; is a refreshingly honest biography about a hugely talented classically trained violinist turned rock blues guitarist, singer-songwriter, band leader and perfectionist in search of respect and acceptance.
It’s the tale of a musical force of nature who learns to balance an independent entrepreneurial career with motherhood. She comes out the other side as a wiser human being with a Zen like quality to her outlook.
The fact that Erja Lyytinen has enjoyed international success in a predominantly male dominated blues scene, is evidence enough of her drive and passion, but the fact that she’s also Finnish makes her story even more groundbreaking.
Finland boast a wealth of composers outside of Sibelius, while in the roots rock world, there’s plenty to explore in the timeline separating 70’s heroes Tasavallan Presidentti and say Nightwish, but with a small population and impenetrable language, it’s never been a mainstream musical destination.
