Johanna Juhola & Reaktori UK Tour in April!
Eccentric, Eclectic and Very Cheeky Accordion Finnish Style!
Charismatic and playful accordionista Johanna Juhola conjures a magical world that blends Buenos Aires tango halls with forest-dark Finnish landscapes.
Laced with both melancholic nostalgia and uplifting exuberance, Johanna’s music is an original blend of contemporary tango and inventive use of electronica. A well-known face on Finland’s music scene, her opener track commissioned for the 2007 Eurovision song contest was watched by tens of millions around the world. Johanna’s innovative performances with her Reaktori quartet captivate with their musical wizardry and cheeky theatricality, a buttons-and-bellows charm attack Finnish-style.
Johanna's music laces Finland's tango nuevo with an uplifting exuberance and circus-like theatricality that is uniquely her own: www.johannajuhola.net/index.html
