“Finn Bonel‘s music gives a nod to the sounds of Dylan, Waits, Springsteen, Vega and Cohen which constantly bellowed through his childhood home. They clearly left their mark in his repertoire, yet Finn also evokes the spirit of the classic British R&B era of the 60s with musical salutes to the likes of Cream and Procol Harum. Modern day comparisons might be drawn from the concentrated tones of Ryan Adams, Midlake or Ben Howard.”
