Bigfinn have evolved out the ether from a disparate collective of musicians based at Moolah Rouge Studios in Stockport UK. The band revolves around four key members but is often thickened out by friends who might happen to be recording down the hall. The diverse sound is culled from a wide range of influences; musical, theatrical and literary and is also informed by the studio buzz and eclectic musicians playing around the space, who's creative vibes hang in the air like sensi. The result being original and uplifting. New songs added from new album "Distant Silver" :- "MAGIC CAMERA" , "DISTANT SILVER" feat. Peter Jobson(I am Kloot) on Bass. "SAY A WORD FOR ME" Just added. Other guests on the album are BadlyDrawnBoy, Cherry Ghost, Jimi Goodwin (Doves), John Bramwell (I Am Kloot)BIGFINN are also on Moolahrouge myspace,so click below to have a listen.Norman and Colin Mcleod also play with I Am Kloot
