Robert Finley
After a lifetime of hard work, Robert Finley has established himself as one of today’s preeminent spokesmen of the blues. Born and raised in the small town of Bernice, LA, Finley spent decades playing music as a street performer and leader of the gospel group Brother Finley and the Gospel Sisters before making his long overdue recording debut at the young age of 62 with 2016’s Age Don’t Mean A Thing. The album captured the attention of Easy Eye Sound founder Dan Auerbach, beginning a long collaborative relationship that has included 2017’s Goin’ Platinum, 2021’s autobiographical Sharecropper’s Son, and 2023’s critically acclaimed Black Bayou. An 11-track tour de force that coalesces southern soul, jazz, folk, blues, rock ‘n’ roll and more into a raw, thundering tribute to Finley’s home state of Louisiana, the latter album was met by ecstatic applause from leading publications around the world spanning SPIN, The FADER, No Depression, American Songwriter, Paste, Uncut, and more with MOJO simply declaring in a five-starred rave, “Black Bayou is surely the album Finley was put on Earth to create, filled with stories only he could tell.”
An electrifying performer known for his soulful swagger and gritty vocal power, Finley has since proven a hugely popular international live act with sold-out headline tours, countless festival appearances, shows alongside The Black Keys, and a leading role in Auerbach’s Easy Eye Sound Revue. Finley has also made a number of high-profile network TV appearances, including the 2019 season of NBC’s “America’s Got Talent” – where he eventually made it to the semi-finals – and CBS Saturday Morning. Having overcome great adversity – including losing his sight in his 60s – Robert Finley is now justly recognized the world over as a singular storyteller and one of the last great bluesmen of the modern era, a true living legend with still more magic to come.

Tiwayo
Nicknamed “The Young Old” for his timeless voice, Parisian soul singer and songwriter Tiwayo returns with Outsider, a powerful new album produced by Grammy Award-winning Black Pumas member Adrián Quesada. Set for worldwide release on April 10, 2026, Outsider marks the triumphant return of a bohemian spirit who played on the streets and traveled the world, soaking up the blues, soul, and gospel roots that continue to shape his music. He offers us a rare and radiant gem of soul, inviting Doyle Bramhall II (longtime collaborator of Eric Clapton) on three tracks, as well as New Yorker Kendra Morris.
While many modern retro soul artists lean toward the Motown style, Tiwayo's sound remains raw, uncompromising, and rooted in the soul traditions of the South. Tiwayo doesn't follow the rules of the genre. He blazes his own trail: that of a Frenchman in Texas, a soul singer with the heart of a bluesman, a foreign traveler everywhere and at home everywhere. In a world of overly polished covers, Tiwayo fully embraces his status as an outsider, an anti-hero of soul, proving that the truest power lies in the raw and authentic.
