Outi Karhu is a Finnish singer and pianist, born with restless feet and a curios heart that led her to Scotland. This nomadic spirit allows her to remain adventurous in her approach to life as well as music. Constantly examining new viewpoints, she happily hops between styles and genres, enchanting her audiences with jazz flavoured folk musings where stories of feminism, sisterhood and freedom intermingle with fables and fairytales. She invites the listener on a sonic journey, from pine scented woods of her Nordic motherland to the rugged Scottish wild. She is increasingly passionate about improvisation, a practice which has taught her to embrace being in the moment and fully accept her creative vulnerability. Outi is currently writing and performing with new material for her debut album.
Outi Karhu has performed in Sofar Glasgow and Sofar Edinburgh.
