He hasn't produced an album yet, but Harper Finn has released a number of ear-tingling singles, one of the latest being a transformational cover of the Goldenhorse classic, 'Maybe Tomorrow'.

William Dart enjoys getting to know this youngest Finn's very individual music but inevitably finds one or two parallels to the songs of his father Tim.
