Wes Finch

British singer/songwriter Wes Finch mixes together folk, blues, Americana, and literate indie pop. Based in Coventry, he spent a number of years fronting a rotating roots ensemble called the Dirty Band, with which he recorded his first album, 2008's Now Look Here, It's the Dirty Band, See. Although he continued to use the Dirty Band as his live band, he stripped down his sound for 2010's largely acoustic solo effort Asthill Grove. His 2012 follow-up, Mayflower, was a bit more sonically expansive, with arrangements ranging from atmospheric field recordings to eclectic full-band arrangements. Echoes of American artists like Conor Oberst, Elliott Smith, and Ryan Adams can be heard in Finch's style, which feels rooted in folk music but has the ambition and sophistication of pop. Following the release of Mayflower he began touring more heavily, playing clubs and festivals alike supporting U.K. folk veterans like Billy Bragg and Martin Carthy. Working with producer Gerry Diver (Sam Lee, Lisa Knapp), he recorded his fourth LP, the ambitious and more experimental Awena, which was released in 2015.
