Fink: BeatCrave Fav
By Brian McConnell
In the UK world of Lady _____ this and The _____ that, a tried and true singer/songwriter seems like a thing of the past. Luckily, the brilliant-Brittish-acoustic-guitar-wielding-solo-act is not yet extinct: today’s BeatCrave Fav, aka Fink, is carrying the torch and starting a musical fire with his gorgeous (non auto-tuned) voice and heart wrenchingly luscious lyrics.
With his latest release, “Sort of Revolution” causing a commotion amongst the often fickle British critics, Fink is proving to be a major talent on the verge of sensation. Unlike many of today’s artists, Fink truly let his music speak for itself and it’s saying, “you and you and you, you’re going to love me…” For all of the aforementioned reasons, and a plethora of unspoken praises, we are excited to share with you today’s BeatCrave Fave: Fink.
