LIMITED EDITION CLEAR VINYL
Release Date: 26th April 2019
Our man Craig Finn, aka frontman of the incredible The Hold Steady, is back once more with his 4th solo record and as always an album packed with incredible storytelling and musical craftsmanship. Finn's solo sound is a softer, more melodic approach to The Hold Steady but it's not a million miles away from his 'day job' - it's a lovely mix of country-tinged folk-rock perfect for late-night drinking. You need this man in your life!
FFO: The Hold Steady, Strand of Oaks, Titus Andronicus, John K. Samson
"Craig Finn releases his third solo record on Partisan Records (and his fourth solo record overall), ‘I Need A New War’. Craig is best known as the frontman of The Hold Steady but he is also a skilled songwriter in his own right. ‘I Need A New War’ is the third album in a trilogy (following 2015’s ‘Faith In The Future’ and 2017’s ‘We All Want The Same Things’). The album focuses on regular people trying to respond to extraordinary times, attempting to find connection while wondering how to keep pace with a world moving faster than they are. It solidifies Craig as one of today’s most important storytellers, among the ranks of Leonard Cohen and Tom Waits."
