Guitar Slingers is a Finnish adult rock band formed in the early 1990s. The band was most active between 1994 and 1999, during which time they released three albums and two compilation albums. Some of their most successful singles include “Baby It’s Alright” and “This Is Forever.”

The band reactivated after the release of a compilation album and toured across Finland, opening for bands such as Status Quo, Meat Loaf, Manfred Mann (in Germany), Lynyrd Skynyrd, and Deep Purple. In addition to their own songs, the band also performs fan favorites like “Hard to Handle”, Boston’s “Amanda”, and ZZ Top’s “Stages.”

“The band’s goal was always to entertain the audience just as much as ourselves, with great music and to have fun. Nothing has changed, and we still have the same vibe… good music and good feelings are an important part of so many people’s lives,” says Jore Marjaranta.
