## Life and career

Evelina was born as Eveliina Tammenlaakso in Turku.[1][2] She first began her music career in 2011 as a contestant in season one of The Voice of Finland, where she was a member of Elastinen's team. She was eliminated during the live shows.[3]

In 2015, Evelina signed a record deal with the Universal Music Group label M-Eazy Music and released her debut double single "Rakkaudesta lajiin"/"Vuoristorataa" in May 2015. She released her breakthrough single later in the year called "Honey", featuring Finnish rapper Mikael Gabriel and penned with American songwriter Hope Raney. The song became a hit in Finland, and reached number-one on the Finnish singles chart. The following year she also released the singles "Sireenit" and "Sushi", which also became top ten hits.[4][5][6] Her debut album 24K sold platinum before being released in 2016.[7]

In 2018, Evelina won the Female Soloist of the Year award in Emma-gaala.[7]
