A night to remember, Finn Miles and Christopher Bell shared the stage, lighting up the night at Java Joe’s in Des Moines, IA last Wednesday.

New songs on the way from Finn Miles! I (Paul) have been tracking guitars and drums at the Hakeman Estate, our latest recording location in scenic central Des Moines, IA.

The new EP will contain five songs, probably our most mature and well balanced tracks to date, all centering around the ‘L’ word, LOVE. Here’s a lyrical sample from one of the new songs – enjoy!

**********************

We go out
pretty things looking around
playin’ it cool
we are the kings and queens of fools

new time, the bomb
hurried love under cover songs
stretch cars and highlights
how will we know when we’ve done it right?

we’re making us
a game of chance
we’re taking us
for a joyride, baby

- I confess I haven’t a clue
when it comes to loving you
modern love, what we have we done?

We’ve just set up a series of intimate-setting shows at Stam Chocolaterie in Des Moines, another fantastic non-traditional setting for this summer’s Finn Miles concert series.

Over the past few years we’ve played T-shirt shops, jewelery stores, living rooms, and street corners…you can’t say we’re not trying!

What other settings would you like to see Finn Miles play?

Finn Miles is playing a series of house-shows across Iowa, and since they’re held in private homes I can’t invite you all.
However, I can tell you that:
1. You can book your very own house show. We’ll tell you how it works. (contact us at finnmiles@finnmiles.com)
2. If you really want to get invited to a house show…like the one we’re holding on June 5th in Des Moines, IA I may be able to get you onto the VIP guest list…if you promise to be good.

if not, you’ll just have to be satisfied to sit at home and watch old Finn Miles footage from past shows.

You know what I’m talkin’ about.

Our friends at Canby have released an outstanding record “Rat.” We think it’s so good you should buy it.

And go see a live show while you’re at it.

And check out their record label for additional enjoyable music.
