Includes unlimited streaming via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

finn. enters new territories by covering 13 songs, which sound just like bedtime stories addressed to no-one but ourselves, the songs bring up memories long lost. Much of the magic of this record lies in its ability to find the enchanting element in songs that cannot exactly be considered jewels of music history. Dancing With Tears In My Eyes (Ultravox) and Tina Turner’s Private Dancer are just two examples. The album’s highlight is probably the version of Crying In The Rain, performed with Dirk von Lotzow from the band Tocotronic.

about

finn. Hamburg, Germany

Patrick Zimmer is finn. He creates clouded worlds of sound which utter warmth and familiarity. His songs are driven by melancholy and his tender voice comes so close that we imagine feeling his breath on our ear.
