Liam Finn, the son of New Zealand legend Neil Finn) has announced his first ever London live residency, which will span a series of four nights at The Lexington venue.
The announcement follows the release of Finn’s acclaimed new album 'The Nihilist', his first record in three years, which was released earlier this year.
Speaking about this latest run of his inimitably named ‘Murmuration’ residencies (the first to take place outside of New York), Finn says: ‘The Murmuration residencies came about because I was searching for a new way to approach touring and performing. When I was 15 I saw one of Jon Brion’s legendary residencies at the club Largo in LA. The spontaneity and unpredictable nature of the shows had me and everyone else there glued with the sense of danger and the knowledge that we were witnessing a truly unique show never to be recreated. I was inspired to make my shows different every night, not falling into the comfort zone of repeating set lists and sticking to the plan. With this first London Murmuration I am excited to involve friends old and new, letting spontaneity steer the ship and musically evolve over the 4 shows. It will be refreshing to perform in London and not be in and out in a flash, but to linger with a tantric mystique.”
