The Beatles in a New Adaptation
She’s Leaving Home is a Beatles tribute band from southern Finland that brings a unique and modern twist to the Fab Four’s timeless songs. Featuring a female lead vocalist, keyboard-driven arrangements, and—most notably—no guitars, their performances offer a fresh and exciting reinterpretation of the Beatles’ sound.
Their versions transform the classics into new shapes and styles: from funk to disco, from intimate ballads to sophisticated pop. The result is a distinctive, elegant, and daring tribute for audiences seeking something beyond note-for-note recreations.
Line-up:
Myyri Ruokolahti – vocals
Riddo Ridberg – keyboards & additional drums
Anton Elmvik – bass
Oliver Tschernij – drums & additional keyboards
She’s Leaving Home has taken this innovative approach to stages around the world, demonstrating that the Beatles’ music continues to live and evolve in new forms and textures.
If you’re looking for exact copies of Beatles songs, this isn’t for you. But if you’re open to a bold, refreshing take, welcome aboard!

Some kind words from our audience.
”Helsinki BW:n kohokohta oli SLH:n upea keikka. Beatles ei ole kirkko, jonne mennään kuulemaan sanaa, vaan puutarhamultaa, josta versoo aina uusia taimia. Oli hykerryttävää kuulla uusi, jännä alku biisiin, josta ei heti tiennyt, mikä se oli. Ja odotus palkittiin!”
“The most incredible band was She’s Leaving Home. What a f***ng amazing band. This band was a gift for those who loves Beatles.”
“Fantastic band with a great sense of style and artistry!”
"Noin se mun mielestä pitääkin mennä, että piiseistä haetaan esiin jotain uutta ja erilaista."
You guys did a great gig at The Cavern. It was good to see something different from the usual cover bands.
"Wow, I am listening to the album now and you have just made my Monday morning, my week, and my life so much better!!!"
"What an amazing live-band you are!"
“I was absolutely blown away! I love every second of your show. You were definitely the best Beatles tribute at Beatleweek 2019!”
“I loved your new and fresh interpretations of the Beatles songs.”
"So good to hear someone doing something different with The Beatles music and taking it in a new direction.”
"The most talked about band at the festival! The arrangements and interpretations were fabulous."
"Very original versions. Loved this band!"
“Our musical highlight of the whole week. Totally unique take on The Beatles.”
“Lähestytte Beatlesmusaa omalla persoonallisella, tuoreella ja täysin muista poikkeavalla tavalla! Parasta antia BeatleWeek:illä pitkästä aikaan!”
"Olen nähnyt monta bändiä, mutta tämä oli kyllä huonointa mitä olen ikinä kuullut! Karseita versioita."
“Most original band at Beatles week. Amazing.”
”Ces Finlandais "groovent" avec leurs réinterprétations personnelles teintées de funky. Et la chanteuse à la voix chaude est le parfait complément de musiciens inspirés.
Bref, une magnifique découverte!”
