London

Lost Horizons Presents Kerttu

Finnish singer-songwriter Kerttu (Kerttu Sormunen) moved to London in 2017 from her native Helsinki to take her place among the melting pot of World and Roots musicians who call the UK capital their home. She has spent the last few years performing in front of London audiences, honing her own original songs. Her effortless ethereal voice finding passionate listeners, despite the songs being penned in her mother-tongue of Finnish. When not performing her own songs solo, Kerttu has collaborated and played among a vibrant world music community. She has done this both abroad, through attending ‘Ethno’ music camps, and also whilst in London as a core member of the dynamic and high octane ‘Flotsam Sessions’ group. Other current music projects include electro folk outfit ‘Noum’ and acapella group ‘Idrisi Ensemble’.
Kerttu returns to Lost Horizons to headline, following a hugely successful appearance in 2025. She promises some form of collaboration for this evening´s performance.
Support comes from the South London based troubadour Vincent Burke. A regular on the playlist of Guy Garvey´s Radio 6 show.
