Finn Askew

Guitar in hand and ambitious vision in mind, Finn Askew infuses irresistible pop melodies with focused storytelling and R&B grooves. The UK-born singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer confidently carries hooks over dynamic guitar passages as he zooms in on moments from his life. This simple balance has affirmed him as an outlier with a fresh and fiery style rooted in a tried-and-true classic approach. Growing up in the small town of Somerset, he devoured as much music as possible and penned songs at a prolific pace. In the midst of the Pandemic, he released “Roses”, and it caught fire. Taeyong of NCT 127 played it during a livestream and sang along, igniting Finn’s popularity. BTS vocalist Jungkook touted the song on social media, and it exploded to the tune of 65 million cumulative streams. In between, he dropped a pair of EPs, namely Peach and Tokyo. Of the latter, Clash professed, “Laden with colour and enormous potential, it’s an EP to soak up slowly.” Along the way, VEVO named him a DSCVR “Artist To Watch,” and he graced the stages of Reading + Leeds and The Great Escape. For as much as he disrupts genre fabric, he does so from the proven perspective of a troubadour. Amassing over 300 million streams and inciting the acclaim of Clash, NME, and many others, he’s already resonated on multiple continents and continues to break boundaries and subvert expectations.
