Tarja is a truly unique and iconic artist that, after parting ways with Nightwish, has built a formidable catalogue and a legion of loyal and energetic fans as a solo artist over the past 15 years. With six rock albums and a wide variety of side projects ranging from classical music to electronica, Tarja's music crosses boundaries, genres and always forges something new.
On June 19th, 2016, Tarja took the stage at Hellfest, one of Europe's largest and most prestigious metal festivals held in Clisson, France. A powerful blend of operatic vocals and heavy metal instrumentation captivated the audience and made Tarja's performance one of the festivals highlights. The setlist was a carefully curated mix of her solo work, as well as iconic Nightwish songs. "Rocking Heels: Live at Hellfest" is an unforgettable experience, solidifying Tarja's status as a leading figure in the metal genre, including hits such as "Innocence", "Victim Of Ritual" and "Until My Last Breath", showcasing her evolution as an artist, and stirring renditions of Nightwish classics like "Ever Dream" and "The Riddler" bringing a sense of nostalgia.
