The Fins - Adaptor Video
'Foot Stomping Dynamic Rock that makes you dance unitl you can't dance no more'

The Fins' explosive performance of dynamic rock is making a name for them with the press, the industry and audiences across the UK and abroad.

"quite simply joyous, guitar driven rock and roll… has mosh pit stamped all over it” Rockbeatstone

This Farnborough based 5 piece now have 6 UK tours and over 125 gigs behind them.

“ [they] set the stage alight" Guilfest 2008

With indie label Numerical Blue, The Fins successfully tested the market for recorded music, selling out on pre-sales alone with their first single Adaptor in October 2008.

“Touches of Green Day cut with the power of the Foo Fighters and wrapped up with a superior production job 'Adaptor’ is one of the best songs of the autumn with a singable hook line and terrific guitar breaks from Macca” Music-News.com

The accompanying Adaptor video was produced by industry professionals giving their time freely for the worthy cause of The Fins. It has been seen by thousands, bringing new followers from as far away as Australia through Rage TV. The Fins aren’t shy of live TV and Radio either as their 2008 interviews and performances show. They are a popular choice with broadcasters for their spontaneous humour and clear camaraderie, which surprises, given the sometimes menacing nature of their lyrics.

“Everything about The Fins is guitar driven, even down to the blunt lyrics that serve only to highlight their angsty beats.” The Mag

By engaging with their audience, The Fins make new fans everywhere they go. In addition to selling out headlining gigs they have supported the likes of Reverend and the Makers, The Rifles, Alphabeat, The Futureheads, and You Me at Six.

2009 will be better than ever with the release of The Fins first album. They’re kicking off on tour with The Rifles to debut some of the eagerly awaited new tracks. It’s edgy, it’s electric, it’s moody and melodic.

““The Fins rock with thunderous drive and gritty finesse;” Toxicpete

The Fins are:
Ryan - lead singer: How do you describe a unique sound? Probably too handsome for his own good.
Macca – guitar: The guy who ‘just turned up one day’. Radiates genuine guitar genius to transfix the audience.
Rauf – bass: Clever than ever song-writer. Looks moody but has been known to bounce on stage, whilst singing backing vocals.
James – acoustic: Ever the showman, always itching to get on stage with his guitar.
Lawrence – drums: Wickedly sharp and well respected drummer. Has been likened to a cross between Taz and Animal but has a grin wider than the Atlantic.
