  • History Repeats After All
    March10 December 2001 2004 History Repeats After All Appeared in - The Adelaide Review The Finn Brothers with Missy Higgins Entertainment Centre There is a sense of full circle here. Who said our beginnings never know our Enz ? Neil and Tim Finn are touring a new album, ripe with harmony and turbid with memory. On stage at the Ent Centre, the flickering home movie of squinting kids on the front porch in Teasdale Street, Te Awa- mutu sets an expectation, but it is certainly not nostalgia. The Finns have a lot of history and, in middle age, they are starting to sift through it. They have called the album, Everyone is Here and that includes a ghost or two as well. Even the cover photo, by the legendary Marti Friedlander, tells a story. Siblings looking uneasy in a familiar landscape - the Waikato River behind them, steely under a louring North Island sky. These songs, like the little Super 8 film which opens the show, document a particular time and place but, unlike their previous 1995 collaboration, the puckishly parochial Finn , Everyone is Here is - like the best of Paul Kelly, the Oils, Mutton Birds and others - regional art for a world audience. The Finns are match fit for these Australian shows, having just come off a tour of the UK and New Zealand. Anything Can Happen is, suitably, the opener - Neil on electric 12 string, Tim at the Steinway. The signature vo- cals merge like elements in a compound as Neil’s open-hearted tenor in- fuses with Tim’s more studied, ambitious harmonies.

  • BIOGRAPHY TIM FINN the Conversation
    BIOGRAPHY TIM FINN The Conversation “In a good conversation, everyone contributes equally” The Conversation is the brilliant new studio album from Tim Finn. Organic, intimate, introspective, celebratory – The Conversation sounds and feels like no other record the great singer/songwriter has ever produced. Economy and clarity – music and emotion stripped bare. Make it as real and honest as possible. Everyone involved contributing equally. That’s what Tim Finn was thinking long before work on The Conversation began. There’s a verse in the song “Straw To Gold”, which opens The Conversation, where Tim sings: “Lay down your heart/Break the world apart/Somewhere in the middle we could make a start.” That sort of sums up what Tim knew had to happen before The Conversation could progress. “Come down, come down from your imaginary kingdom,” Tim sings on another of The Conversation’s new tracks, “Imaginary Kingdom” [a song which, of course, takes its name from Tim’s last solo album, 2006’s rich and majestic Imaginary Kingdom.] Still, it’s hard to pinpoint exactly how The Conversation finally got started. In a manner of speaking, it’s a song cycle that begins with a track called “More Fool Me” and ends with another entitled “Forever Thursday” – two of the most personal and honest songs that Tim Finn has ever committed to record. But that hardly tells the whole story – those two songs don’t even appear on the track-list in that order. Tim Finn had long ago thought about making an album of new songs using only the most intimate of instrumentation.

  • Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Neil Finn
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Neil Finn--Once Removed by Neil Finn Crowded House – “Don’t Dream It’s Over” It starts with that magical guitar riff, so unmistakable that it takes us back to the Fab Four days of the sixties—but no it’s not The Beatles but New Zealand’s Crowded House; Unbeknownst to Neil Finn who penned this already tender classic— “Don’t Dream It’s Over,” to my ears, is a modern day, 1980’s reimagining of John Lennon’s “A Day in the Life.” When asked about his Beatles influence Finn replied, “ Not directly, although I’m sure he’s in there somewhere – he’s always in my thoughts. My songs never have clear narratives. I describe moments, work in some feelings and hope for empathy. Growing up, that was my appreciation of music. When I first heard John Lennon singing Help! I thought he sounded really happy; I didn’t know he was seriously in trouble. To me, a good song is about intent, delivery and little resonances. I’m not interested in an intellectual process .” When talking about his craft, Neil Finn said this about songwriting, “I t’s like working with clay. You’ve just got to mould the words until they fit the type of rhythm and meter of the song really well. That’s where the craft comes in .” Neil delved further inside his gift of song when he told writer Graham Reid, “ I like to incorporate different events into the one thing, the formula of truth and reality and in-between is different for every song, but there’s always an element of all three.
