Raised in Grafton, NSW, music had always been a passion but it wasn’t always a career in music that was his focus. A passion and a talent for Rugby League saw Col having his heart set on an Illawarra Jersey however serious injury ended this dream. In his usual get on with it attitude he decided to follow a family industry and joined the Royal Australian Air force, specialising in the training of police dogs. All the while writing songs along the way and jamming with friends. As much as Col loved his job and thrived on knowing he could make a difference to the defence of his country the lure of taking his passion for music to another level was just to strong.
Col Finley released his brand new single “Get Your Country On†on opening night of the 2008 Tamworth Country Music Festival to an expectant crowd at the Tamworth Services Club.With a brand new band and his renowned stage presence, Col and the boys delivered a dynamic 3 hour performance that opened and closed with the new single, released under independent record label,
Col's talents as a song writer and a recording artist are only now receiving the long overdue recognition he so richly deserves.
“Get Your Country On†debuted on the national Aria Singles Chart at No. 7 above Silverchair and the Rouge Traders, and on the International Singles Chart at No. 31.
“Get Your Country On†also delivered Col Finley a chart topping debut on the Australian Independent Charts, outstripping Ben Lee, Danni Minouge, Beccy Cole and Lee Kernigan and maintained this position for 2 consecutive weeks.
Col Finley is anything but a pretentious superstar and is only too happy to make time for his fans. People find it easy to relate to Col and his music because he writes and sings straight from the heart...
