Louie Blue first drew attention with the debut single Confused at age 17, attracting offers from major labels and an early booking in Oslo. He released the Notes EP in 2020 and the album Division 8 in 2022, then paused releases in early 2021 to build a personal studio and broaden his instrumental palette. He returned with the album Blood & Bones: singles Diamond and Toni appeared in early 2025 and Dusty in April, ahead of the full album in September 2025, which he composed, wrote, arranged, produced and mixed himself. Opening act Pihalla are a young Helsinki band whose organic sound draws on traditional Finnish rock and blues; their single Omenapuu raised attention late in 2025 ahead of the debut album Tummaa kohti (October 2026), which features tracks such as Tähdenlento and Kuoleman nuolema. Tickets are sold through Tiketti; the ticket price includes a 3 € cloakroom fee and student tickets require a student card or other proof.
