Artist Biography For The Finkelstiens

Every Now And Then A Band Will Come Along – A Band So Ground-Breaking So Unbelievably Handsome So Technically Proficient That People Stop Dead In Their Tracks And Ask Themselves “Are These Mortals Or Some Manner Of Celestial Beings?” Unfortunately For The Finkelstiens They Are Not Such A Band. In Fact The Only Question Ever Asked About Them Is “Arent They Finished Yet?” Building Their Um Stellar Reputation On Their Live Shows The Finkelstiens Combine Their Questionable Music With Energetic Live Performances Hoping That The More They Roll Around On The Floor The Less People Will Actually Examine Their Musicianship. With Lead Guitarist Wang Exchanging Snappy Banter With Bassist Worm The Performances Often Come Off As Impromptu Comedy Skits Intermingled With The Odd Song Here And There The Operative Word Being ‘odd. The Band Is Rounded Off By Chompa On Drums. Chompa Doesnt Talk Much – He Just Spends All His Time In His Garden Shed Muttering To Himself. The Finkelstiens Have Recently Released Their Third Studio Album Entitled The Finkelstiens Vs. Rock ‘n Roll. The Release Includes Good Life The Theme Song From The Crazy Monkey Movie Straight Outta Benoni Which Reached Number 2 On 5 Fms Top 40. The Song That Is. Not The Movie. How Could A Movie Reach Number 2 On Radio? Honestly. Anyway First Song Off The Album To Hit Radio Waves Was Rock N Roll Which Reached Number 1 On Uh Well The Track Listing Of The Album. Its The First Song So Technically It Reached Number 1 Right? Right. The Current Single On Rotation Is Dark Days And Its About Days That Are Dark. Its A Metaphor Because A Day Cant Be Dark Or Itd Be A Night. Were Using Metaphors Now. The Bands Previous Two Albums Elicited A Number Of Radio-Bothering Singles Including QQ Me Fragile Scattered Memories And Find Its You. Those Songs Are Generally Accepted As The Greatest Songs Ever Written.

Other Accolades That The Finkelstiens Notched Up In 2005 Include Playing At Cosmopolitans 21st Birthday Bash Performing At The Channel O Awards And Opening For International Act The Offspring. The Band Tours The Country Extensively And Their Constant Contact With Their Fans Is Confirmed With Their Videos Being Among The Most Requested On DStv Channels Go And MK89. Granted All The Requests Are That The Videos Be Taken OFF Air But Thats Still A Request Technically.
