It’s always truly a joy when a new Finniston CD drops into my mailbox. I know, without doubt, that whatever it is, it’s going to be a wonderful collection of songs and I’ve not been disappointed so far. This time around it’s a two track single, called Week Days Off, from their forthcoming album on Ruby Records, another album I will be looking forward to greatly.

As mentioned before this single comprises of two tracks, the title track, which has all those wonderful Finniston hallmarks running throughout, from Steven Finnie’s great lead vocals, to Jolene Crawford’s great harmonies. What was originally a two piece band, has nicely blossomed to include Andrew Gifford on bass and Jamie Attridge on drums. Musically it all sounds very tight and just a sheer joy to listen to. The second track “Words Can Only Try” continues the acoustic, mellow theme and I’m reminded again that this is indie music at it’s finest.

Conclusion : Buy the single to fuel your Finniston fire, until the hotly anticipated album finally arrives. If you are suitably devoid of other Finniston music, the previous EP, “Golden Hour of Strict Tempo Dancing” is also still available.
