Troubadour Lasse Hyytinen Troubadour Lasse Hyytinen – music for parties, corporate events, and restaurants

I need a performance space measuring at least 2 x 2 meters. In addition, I require electrical power at the performance area and a parking space for my vehicle.

I need instructions on how to find the event venue and the correct location for bringing in the equipment.

Yes, I am completely self-sufficient. I bring my own sound system and basic lighting equipment to every gig.

No, my performance consists of live music sets; it does not include DJ services.

Oh, there are so many great gigs. But for example, I performed on the main stage at the Kotka Maritime Festival in front of about 10,000 people. It was awesome to open for big bands!

I enjoy playing at all kinds of events, but private parties and corporate functions are my favorites! The guests are always in a good mood, and it’s easy to get them dancing and singing along.

I began performing before I turned twenty, and my act has evolved ever since. In addition to my work as a solo performer, I have also played in numerous cover bands. Over the years, I have performed thousands of gigs at private parties, corporate events, restaurants, and various other functions, across Finland and abroad.

Oh, there are so many great artists and songs. But international artists like The Eagles, Tom Petty, Bruce Springsteen, Bryan Adams, and so on, are close to my heart. To name just a few. Their iconic music has always gone down well with audiences and remains a staple in setlists.

I usually arrive at the venue at least an hour before the performance for preparations. Typically, I play two sets of 45–60 minutes each. I am happy to play for a longer or shorter duration, but this length usually works best for everyone: the client, the audience, and myself.

I am happy to perform outdoors, especially in the summer. For example on terraces, at garden parties, etc. I would appreciate a shaded spot, a flat level surface, and a power supply near the performance area.

I can learn specific songs before the event, though I generally limit this to three tracks. Often, requests are made for songs by artists who are already represented in my repertoire. I also frequently fulfill song requests from the audience during live performances. By gauging the audience's reaction, I select songs from my extensive repertoire that are perfectly suited to the specific situation and occasion.

Past clients would describe me as an energetic and skilled troubadour who loves what he does and knows how to tailor his performance to the nature of the event. Sometimes the music serves as background, while at other times the audience is drawn in to dance and sing along.

My base rate for a solo acoustic performance is 300 euros. Additional costs may apply for travel, potential accommodation, and bookings during popular dates or peak seasons. You can get an exact price for your event by requesting a quote.

My home base is Lappeenranta, Finland. I perform most frequently in the South Karelia region, but I also take gigs throughout Finland and the Nordic countries.
