Fink

Fink brings The City Is Coming to Erase It All to Metropol in Berlin on 16 October 2026. Fin Greenall and his longtime trio built this ninth album in Zennor, Cornwall, with a strict rule set alongside producer Sam Okell: if it didn’t exist in 1974, it stays out. Think close-miked vocals, fingerpicked guitars, a grounded rhythm section and tones that lean into grain and air rather than gloss, channeling the spirit of early-70s folk-blues without dressing up as retro.

Greenall calls it nowstalgia: something new with an old-school ethos. On stage, that idea turns into pacing and narrative. The set treats the record like a story, an opening that feels like a greeting and an instrumental coda that lets the room exhale. Expect the focus to fall on fresh songs and the pull to road-test them in real time, where small dynamic shifts, hushed breaks and steady grooves do the heavy lifting. No frills, no shortcuts, just the craft of a band that trusts the song and the moment—and invites you to sit with it long enough to feel it move.
