The fin.
The band was formed in 2012 by Yuto Uchino (Vo./Gt./Synth.) and Kaoru Nakazawa (Ba./Synth.).
Yuto Uchino creates the band’s music, handling songwriting, recording, mixing, and production. The silky and smooth voice with a distinctive floating sensation and mellow sound blend together to create a fantastic and dreamy music. The music style is based on indie and psychedelic pop, fused with soul, funk, and jazz, creating a soft and mellow sound that brings a sense of peace. Yuto’s lyrics give power while accepting fear of growth and change, adding to the unique aesthetic of The fin.'s musical world.
They've taken the stage at numerous venues in the UK, US, Europe, and Asia, showcasing their talent at festivals like FUJI ROCK, Summer Sonic, SXSW, and The Great Escape. In particular, during their 2023 China tour, they staged shows in over 25 cities, drawing a cumulative audience exceeding 20,000 at their solo performances.
