Finn Pearson
Award-winning singer-songwriter Finn Pearson has built a reputation as one of Western Australia’s hardest-working independent artists, emerging as a prolific multi-instrumentalist across regional touring circuits and packed full-band shows in Perth. Set against the vast landscapes of WA, from sprawling suburbs to open highways, his music explores the tensions of modern life: love and darkness, obsession and yearning, beauty and rage. Drawing on the storytelling tradition of Paul Kelly and Cold Chisel alongside the lyrical depth of Leonard Cohen and Bob Dylan, Finn delivers a sound that is both nostalgic and unmistakably contemporary.
Finn Pearson Band has appeared at major WA festivals including Out of the Woods, Blues at Bridgetown, CubyGroove and Wave Rock Weekender, and shared stages with Eskimo Joe, William Crighton, Adam Newling, Kingswood, The Southern River Band and Playlunch. In September 2026, Finn released his latest EP, Rush Hour at The Servo, featuring “Tunnel Lights”, “Equilibrium”, “Boys Don’t Cry” and “Silver Tray”. The release has received coverage from Rolling Stone Australia and The AU Review, alongside airplay on triple j, ABC Country and Australian Country Radio, and Spotify editorial playlisting. With a growing national audience and a revitalised live show, Finn is entering his next chapter with bigger songs, bigger stages and plenty more miles ahead.
