The Threshold by Finn Collinson
OUT NOW!!
The Threshold is the new album from contemporary folk musician Finn Collinson. Forged in Finn’s native East Anglia but heavily inspired by his four years living and studying in London, the album is a meeting point of old and new; rural and urban; traditional and contemporary.
Across its six instrumentals and four vocal tracks, The Threshold demonstrates a diverse subject matter, ranging from the driving folk-rock of Victorian ghost story 'Jerry Bundler' to the layered soundscapes and sparkling melodies of 'Big Smoke', inspired by the effects of climate change. Finn’s distinctive tune style ties together the material, with a respectful eye on the past but a strong grounding in the present.
