New Music Coming Soon!

New songs on the way from Finn Miles! I (Paul) have been tracking guitars and drums at the Hakeman Estate, our latest recording location in scenic central Des Moines, IA.

The new EP will contain five songs, probably our most mature and well balanced tracks to date, all centering around the ‘L’ word, LOVE. Here’s a lyrical sample from one of the new songs – enjoy!

**********************

We go out
pretty things looking around
playin’ it cool
we are the kings and queens of fools

new time, the bomb
hurried love under cover songs
stretch cars and highlights
how will we know when we’ve done it right?

we’re making us
we’re faking us
we’re taking us
for a joyride, baby

- I confess I haven’t a clue
when it comes to loving you
modern love, what we have we done?

Here’s the Plan – FinnMiles 2010

My dear friends,

2009 is nigh well passed. As we look toward 2010 we can reminisce on a fantastic year of music and art. If the spirit of shows past came and walked us through EP releases, DogtownFest, movies made, and video games soundtracked we’d have little to flinch at, and much to revel in.

As we approach 2010 we look forward to a time of silence, a time of rest. The first XX months (3-5) of 2010 Finn Miles will be digging deep, writing new songs, recording new music, and investigating the grand ideas that make our minds tick.

Don’t worry, we may pop up for an odd acoustic show here and there, and we’ll keep posting progress…but for a full rock sound may I suggest purchase of the Finn Miles Telltale Heart EP? Share it with a friend. Throw a dinner party. Have a conversation. Drink hot chocolate. Live the good life.

We’ll see you soon…

Scott Gratton – Des Moines version of DangerMouse

Howdy,

I just wanted to give props to my brother Scott, a member of Finn Miles and producer extraordinaire. He’s taken a rag-tag collection of songs and put them together with precision and excellence, playing many of the instruments himself. Listen to our EP “Telltale” for his latest brilliant work.

Hello Des Moines. Hello World. We’re releasing an album!

G’day,

It’s just about time! We’re in the finishing stages of mixing out album “Telltale” and it’s time to get it out there! If anyone has any suggestions as to where to do a press release, or if anyone of you, dear friends, would like to review our album and blog about it we’d be happy to get you an early copy.

Also, we’ll be holding our EP release at Mars Cafe, Monday Aug. 3rd at 7pm. Come on out to hear acoustic version of some of the songs, hear the new album, and hear an interview with the band.

Help us get the word out; enjoy our music!

Love,

Finn Miles
