Like some alchemy, Montana-based band, Tin Finley, pull from their individual stories and artistic points of view to emerge with a unified sound bridging those worlds with ethereal folk music and something entirely their own. They paint atmospheric pictures through their lyrics, soaring harmonies, melodic guitars, and velvety piano.

They make good on their reputation of delivering a beautifully raw performance-creating an intimate, welcoming environment with an invitation to the audience to step inside and get lost in it together.

Annette Strean, Kirk Cornelius, Eric Hogenson and Kati O’Toole come together to create and express and celebrate the transformative power of music and community. Each song is a glimpse into stories of love, loss, mental health and the winding road of the human experience.

It’s pure serendipity that four people’s separate paths from Montana and Minnesota to Nashville and L.A. to Boston to London and back again would merge; playing indie folk, alt country, electronic music or atmospheric soundscapes in dive bars and stadiums or theaters and art galleries and music studios; evolving into a professor, a singing poet, a professional thinker and an owner of a treehouse utopia would join together in the mountains of Montana to make an entirely new composition.

Since their inception in 2020, the band has grown in membership and following while honing their sound on stage and in the studio. Tin Finley has written, produced, self-recorded and released a series of singles including Crack In The Window, Start A Fire, Flying In My Mind, Live At Max’s (a live e.p.), and The Weight of the Sky.

They are proud to announce that they are releasing a new e.p. in June to welcome the summer season of live shows. They will be  kicking it off with a bang opening for Lord Huron at The Kettlehouse Amphitheater on Sunday, June 7th, 2026. It was an honor and joy to open for them last year on Memorial Day at this same amazing venue and those exact sentiments are echoed as we return.
