Watch the New Liam Finn Video

Liam Finn recently released a new video for “Cold Feet” from his latest album, FOMO. The New Zealander finds himself in a literal interpretation of the song when he plays the part of an unlucky Eskimo trying to survive on the tundra with his wife. Though the video is a much more lighthearted venture than Portugal. The Man’s recent arctic endeavor, a puppet seal does lose its head....  read more

This Week's New Album Releases (6/21/11)

This week's releases come with what is perhaps the most anticipated record of the summer. It's been three years since Bon Iver brought us the beautiful _For Emma, Forever Ago_, and Justin Vernon once again proves to be a master of song-craft on the band's self-titled second album.  read more

Liam Finn: FOMO

When Liam Finn sings, “I knew I couldn’t have you / right from the very start / and that’s why you see right through me / the boy who ate your heart,” during FOMO‘s earliest moments, he sounds humbled, but also resigned to his place in an existence often fraught with anxiety, obsession, maladjustment.

Fifteen Balloons Falcon Was Also Not In

Poor Falcon Heene. You gotta feel for the kid who made news headlines on Thursday and Friday, even vomiting on live television, simply for not being in a balloon. But rather than dwell on the fact that his life has probably been irrevocably changed by a silly event it’s pretty clear his almost-certainly-skeezy parents cooked up to rekindle the special kind of fame one gets from appearing on Wife Swap, let’s try to look at this from a positive point of view. For instance, did you ever notice how much balloon-themed art there is in the world? It’s crazy! Here...  read more

Liam Finn Talks Champagne in Seashells EP, Opening Himself Up to Collaboration Again

Liam Finn calls his beard “well-traveled” for a good reason. Over the past year alone, the troubadour performed over 180 times at venues far from his New Zealand abode, opening for The Black Keys, Pearl Jam and Wilco. “Getting the opportunity to play at beautiful legendary venues like Massey Hall in Toronto, or the Ryman in Nashville is really amazing,” Finn told Paste, adding that he also enjoyed visiting the United States during its presidential election hoopla. ...  read more

Liam Finn and Eliza-Jane Barnes to Release Champagne in Seashells EP

With all the instruments he plays, it seems the only conceivable thing Liam Finn could add to his sonic arrangements would be another artist altogether. After a busy year of touring on the release of his stellar debut, I'll Be Lightning, Finn has done just that: his Champagne in Seashells EP, recorded with Australian folkie Eliza-Jane Barnes, drops Sept. 1....  read more
