Biscuits for Breakfast by Fink - Album Review
The first Fink trio record, Biscuits for Breakfast, is a wildly evocative and moody journey. Fink is a solo artist who used to record under that moniker as a disc jockey. The trio has since evolved from his work with Ninja Tune Records, moving from a beat-box solo artist into an accomplished folk trio. In fact, the band Fink has become quite a formidable force in the indie/underground music scene so of course its derivation deserves closer scrutiny. Hailing from Bristol, the Fink trio has a somber quality which closely aligns them with others from the same region; echoes of the distinctive Bristol sound found in artists such as Massive Attack, Portished, and Tricky...

Fink on Idealizing Musicians
My interview with Fin Greenall (aka Fink) was very interesting; the musician had a lot to say. We talked about the business, politics, life, and music. Fink has some favorite bands; idealizing any band beyond their utility can be a slippery slope. Read the full article HERE.

Fink on Session Playing and Fink's Fingers
Fink talks about his fingers. From my interview with Fink
"I recently was lucky enough to interview the uber-talented skater, DJ, producer, singer, songwriter, and guitar player Fin Greenall (aka Fink) when he was in Los Angeles for a couple shows. Fink had all sorts of interesting things to say about music, the recording industry, the recent economic crisis in Estonia, and his sister's uncanny resemblance to my own wife. One thing though, at one point in our two hour discourse on the rooftop of the Le Montrose Suite Hotel in West Hollywood, was when Fink remarked that he at one point wanted to be a session player; but was thwarted..."

Pretty Little Thing: Folk-Crooner Fink Gets the Girl
The reason songs take on such precedence in my life is because when I listen to them over and over again, how could they not? So it goes for Fink, my new favorite musician/group/solo performer. Fink is really Fin Greenall; British DJ turned folk musician and his two "mates" Guy & Tim. But we're not talking Don McLean folk; Fink is psychedelic/plaintive/sultry/funky in a very minimalist sort of way...
