Info zu Long Live Music

Tim Finn has amassed a body of work that most songwriters and creative visionaries could only dream of producing.

Tim has crafted a chronological set list of songs that he "can still fully inhabit, and never tire of singing". The upcoming tour, 'The Lives And Times Of Tim Finn' will epically run the gamut of his best work from 1977 to the present day.

When considering his influences, Tim still has a deep reverence for The Beatles and declares that, "I'm as old as rock & roll itself". As a seasoned visionary ensconced in the sonic realms, he believes "playing live is the link between a songwriter and his or her next album". Performing "feeds into the writing, and it never gets old".

Tim Finn is one of New Zealand's most gifted songwriters. If his long catalogue sometimes lacks the easy pop-rock polish of those songs by his brother Neil (with whom he has frequently written and played) or the sentimentality of Dave Dobbyn's more recent output, that is only to say Tim has gone his own way.

From the idiosyncratic and innovative songs with Split Enz through a series of solo albums identifiable by their often uncomfortable personal analysis to his more recent albums where he sounds increasingly a man at peace with himself and his past, Tim Finn has created one of the great, if sometimes, overlooked, bodies of work in New Zealand popular music.

This timeline was prepared for EMI on the occasion of the release of the first overview of Tim's work with Split Enz, Crowded House and albums under his own name, the double CD, Anthology: North, South, East, West.

“I was born in Te Awamutu, 25th of June 1952. Ten pounds of boy . . . My mother and father’s pride and joy, Richard and Mary, drink to my journey . . .” (Haul Away from the Split Enz album Time and Tide)
