#366: Tarja Turunen (ex-Nightwish)

The MetalSucks Podcast - A podcast by MetalSucks and The Orchard - Mondays

Categories:

Tarja Turunen is our guest for our first-ever holiday episode of The Metalsucks Podcast. We discuss some of her favorite memories of Christmas while growing up in Finland, how a personal tragedy ruined the holidays for many years, her decision to make her first solo record in 2006 a Christmas album, her upcoming Christmas livestream performance, and her favorite Christmas album as a child. She also speaks to the difficulty of not being able to work during the pandemic, the struggle of finding inspiration during this time, her desire to do a full tour for the In The Raw album before releasing a new rock album, and how livestreams will endure as a platform for bands for years to come. Petar, Brandon, Jozalyn, and Sylvia tackle the four metal bands that get the vast majority of streams, our first hard rock/metal albums we got for the holidays, and much more. Songs: Tarja - “O Come, O Come Emmanuel” (Live) and “Dead Promises” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
