Thelise is a Helsinki-based electropop artist who is inspired by great emotional experiences, crossroads and the diversity of human relationships.
Thelise’s music is influenced by lyric-driven Finnish pop and international modern electro and list music. The songs are produced by Juho Vehmanen, a musician-producer who is familiar from the line-ups of several top Finnish names (e.g. PMMP, Vesala, VV, Jenni Vartiainen), and the lyrics and compositions are written by Thelise and Vehmanen.
Thelise, who debuted in 2021, released her debut album “Ihmissuhdeanarkisti” in autumn 2022 and started an active release cycle in autumn 2024, leading towards her second album due out this year. Thelise’s music has been heard not only on Spotify’s new music charts and radio, but also on television.
Known for her strong live performances, Thelise has been actively touring all over Finland, both at festivals and prestigious music clubs. In August 2025, she will be part of Musiikkitalo’s summer concerts.
