Description
Brand new studio album by acclaimed singer songwriter Jeff Finlin. The album continues in the fine Power Pop and Americana tradition Jeff is known for.
Born in Cleveland, Ohio, the grandson of Irish railroad workers (who seemed to be in the habit of leaping from trains), Jeff Finlin is a fascinating, unique artist. His career has taken many twists and turns.

He began with wanderlust, traveling America using every form of transportation, with the exception of rickshaw (still on the bucket list). Having played in bands in Boston, Ohio and L.A, he finally wound up in Nashville with long-time mate and Academy Award nominee Gwil Owen ("A Softer Place to Fall") to form the rock band "the Thieves", which released the acclaimed "Seduced by Money", produced by Marshall Crenshaw on Capitol Records. In 1993, he went on to produce the self-released "Lonely Light" before going on to produce the Little Dog/ Mercury release, "Highway Diaries".

The Chicago Sun Times said:
"FINLIN writes with the minimalist grit of Sam Shepard and Raymond Carver - tune in and you will hear an elusive magic."

Next it was on to New York, where Jeff incorporated the likes of Mark Ribot (Tom Waits and Elvis Costello) and Tony Garnier (Bob Dylan), to produce "Original Fin", which was released on BMG/Gravity in the UK and Ireland and NBFNY in the U.S.

Music Row called the record:

"A do it yourself piece of musical brilliance - Simply manna to the literate songwriter's soul."

Uncut called Finlin - "A real find."
