Erja Lyytinen Announces “Diamonds on the Road” April 2024 Tour
Due to popular demand, and following her successful 2023 UK tour, internationally acclaimed guitarist, and singer songwriter Erja Lyytinen will embark on her Diamonds On The Road 10-date UK tour in April 2024. Tickets are available from https://erjalyytinen.com/tour
The tour is named after current live album Diamonds On The Road, that was originally released by Tuohi Records on Friday 6th October 2023. The album is available on Double CD, vinyl and digital HERE.
“After our long-awaited visit to UK in November 2023, I realised that I have really missed touring in this country,” says Erja. “We have some hardcore fans in the UK, real blues rock enthusiasts who certainly show their appreciation when you’re on stage and that feels good!”
Continues Erja, “I can’t wait to come back in April 2024 for a full tour, consisting of altogether ten shows. I will be flying straight from Australia to London. I’m looking forward to enjoying England in the springtime.”
Some may argue that music is born in the studio, but it comes to life and evolves when performed live on stage. With a live album, there is no safety net. You get one shot at capturing those perfect moments and preserving them forever. Erja Lyytinen’s live album Diamonds On The Road is evident of this.
“When playing live, you’ve got one moment to get it right, and then the moment is gone,” says Erja. “There is no correcting stuff later. It is very raw and exciting to play and sing at the same time. The adrenaline runs through your body, and everything around you affects your performance.”
