Nylon Beat is a Finnish pop duo formed in 1995 by Jonna Geagean (née Kosonen) and Erin Anttila (née Koivisto), who first met on MTV3's talent show Kiitorata. Their debut album in 1996 launched a string of chart-topping hits - 'Rakastuin mä looseriin', 'Teflonlove', 'Naparengas' - and the duo sold over half a million records before wrapping up their active career in 2003. They remain one of the most recognisable acts in Finnish pop history, with their songs still heard on radio and in film and TV soundtracks.
Nylon Beat became the first act ever to perform four consecutive nights at Helsingin Jäähalli, after demand for the 'TYTÖT HALUAA' anniversary shows sold out three dates within minutes and a fourth was added for 30 September 2026.
Nylon Beat announced the 'TYTÖT HALUAA' concert at Helsingin Jäähalli on 3 October 2026 to mark the 30th anniversary of their debut album.
Nylon Beat was confirmed as a headliner at Ruisrock 2026.
Nylon Beat performed at Helsinki City Festival in June 2024, their first major comeback show after a six-year break from live performances.
