Finn Forster
Independently featured on BBC Radio 2, Channel 4’s Sunday Brunch and picked as a ‘BBC Introducing One To Watch’ artist, Finn then signed to Interval Records (Universal/EMI North) and Jon Ollier (One Fiinix Live) in 2024. He has supported the likes of Rag n Bone Man, Bastille, The Reytons, The Lottery Winners and Newton Faulkner.
An advocate for inspiring more arts and culture in his hometown, Finn Hails from the industrial town of Middlesbrough in the North East of England and his songs come from places of real truth, deliver anthemic melodies and shine light on the trials and tribulations of his youth told through captivating vocals.
His upcoming 2025 EP ‘EMBERS’ is themed around Finn’s drive and determination, reminiscent of an Ember which can be both the end of an intense fire, and the beginning of a small flame depending on the moment. The singles Long Nights, Feels Like, Broken Game and Fading cover themes of strength, heartbreak, persistence and failure, and are accompanied by four videos, each intertwined as the story unfolds to create one longer short film.
EMBERS is set for release in May 2025.
