Fink - (Set time: 8:30 PM)
Fink
Mention Fink (real name Fin Greenall) and you surprisingly get one of two reactions: head-scratching non-familiarity; or the impassioned response that prompts other more recognised recording artists to wax lyrical about him live on air. It is a remarkable void, but one that closes month on month, year on year, as more and more people realise just how many of Fink’s songs they actually already know.
Fink’s music is in two words bewitching and addictive. He and his bandmates have toured the world many times over and can command audiences in their thousands back home in Europe. Fink became the first and pre-eminent singer-songwriter signed to legendary British label Ninja Tune back in ‘99 - after making the transition from world-class club DJ and electronic producer. 4 critically-acclaimed albums later and he’s also an in-demand collaborator having written for and with the likes of John Legend, Ximena Sarinana, the late Amy Winehouse, and musical greats such as LaMont Dozier and Pino Palladino. Fink’s songs have opened and closed seasons of Emmy Award winning TV shows such as CSI and House, and have appeared in numerous movies and commercials. The fact is - you already know Fink – you just might not have known that.
Fink has not toured North America for over 3 years, so this is a welcomed return for an artist whose reputation goes from strength to strength with an assured confidence most other artists could only dream of.
