In an age where vapid sentimental balladeers and robotic manufactured pop represent two overwhelmingly prevalent but distinctly unappealing extremes, Findlay Brown is a defiantly unorthodox presence. A part-time bare-knuckle boxer in his Yorkshire youth, Findlay is no introspective wimp: while his ambitious music can be intimate, bare, and sensitive, it's also courageous, triumphant, challenging and otherworldly.
Findlay Brown's cover of 'I'm Glad' by Captain Beefheart first featured on a very limited edition double A-side single released in early 2006 on the All Good Things label. Now, in the run up to the release of Findlay's new single 'Come Home' (22nd Jan) and studio album 'Separated By The Sea' (19th Feb), Findlay is offering the track to fans completely free!
