Findlay Brown

British singer/songwriter Findlay Brown spent his formative years bare-knuckle fighting in the East Ridings region of Yorkshire. A chance encounter with a Jimi Hendrix record eventually turned the jail-bound youth from brawler to musician, and upon relocating to York, Brown became immersed in the local music scene. Financially destitute, the newly minted artist sold the Beatles autographs his grandfather had given him, bought himself a guitar, and eventually moved to London to pursue a solo career. Brown’s unique blend of psychedelic rock and alternative country soon caught the ear of London-based record label All Good Things, who released his debut single, "Down Among the Dead Men," in May 2006. That same year he signed to Peacefrog Records and released the EP Losing the Will to Survive, followed by the full-length Separated by the Sea in 2007. His U.S. debut, Love Will Find You, arrived in 2009 on the Verve Forecast label. ~ James Christopher Monger, Rovi
