The Finns
Before the announcement of our Headline Acts, for this year’s Folly Festival, we are delighted to confirm that The Finns, have been added to this year’s line up!!!
‘All the way from humble Rathdowney in rural Laois’, The Finns are creating some of the most exciting music in Ireland right now on the back of the release of their debut album, Creations.
The album reached No.14 in the Overall Irish Charts, which was a massive achievement for an independent band.
Since forming in 2017, The Finns have notched up an impressive collection of achievements and awards, including being a finalist in the Song Door International Songwriting Competition this year, with their original uplifting track “Freemind”.
They’ve also had a Top 10 place with “Queen Of Camden Street”, in the International Women’s Freedom Song Contest 2019, and their hugely popular single “My Home Town” featured on a TV advert for Creative Ireland and RTÉ last year.
Prior to all that the brothers won the National Busking competition, the Busker Fleadh, in 2017, and have headlined gigs at the Cobblestone, Dublin, and the Crane Lane Theatre in Cork, amongst many others.
The Finns exhibit a strong understanding of producing high quality songs, and their live set has been admired by some of the biggest names in the music industry, leading to them touring Europe and America extensively
The Finns will be busy in 2019, as they will support Dropkick Murphys in Boston USA, are booked to play Whelans of Dublin, and will also appear at this year’s Electric Picnic.
On top of all that, we are proud to announce that The Finns will appear at this year’s Folly Festival!
