Steven Finn
speelt in het Einde van de Wereld
Engelsman Steven Finn ademt blues. Met zijn versterkte tap-schoenen, de rauwe energie van zijn bottleneck gitaarspel, zijn explosieve mondharmonica-spel en zijn gepassioneerd gezongen teksten zet Steven Finn zijn publiek in vuur en vlam. Hij wordt omschreven als "één van de beste Engelse akoestische gitaristen op twee benen".
Steven verzorgde onder andere het voorprogramma voor Ian Siegal en Doug MacLeod. Begin 2008 kwam zijn door critici en publiek goed ontvangen debuut cd "Houdini's Blues" uit. Niet de zoveelste navel starende bluesmuzikant maar tappend blues entertainment dus!
