Kelly Finnigan [2024] - Thom's Heartbreak / Leave You Alone [Colemine Records]


Monophonics frontman Kelly Finnigan has a new solo double-sider single out digitally and will be available on vinyl on 31 May from Colemine Records or Bandcamp

"Thom's Heartbreak" is an instrumental and "Leave You Alone" has been released digitally previously in July last year. Both tracks are taken from his acoustic mixtape "From Me To You" which was available on cassette only from Colemine Records last July.

Finigan is the son of Mike Finigan (who's middle name was Kelly) known to Northern Soulies for his first single "Bread And Water" (1966) which was a big sound at Wigan in the mid 70s. Originally released on a small local Wichita label (Rhythm & Soul the label's only release) and then on Philly's Parkway label.

He was mainly a session vocalist/keyboardist who toured with the likes of Jimi Hendrix, Joe Cocker, Etta James Sam Moore (Sam & Dave) and many other well known artists and twice won a Blues Music Award for his work with Taj Mahal as a member of Phantom Blues Band.  He died in 2021 aged 76.

We've included a bit of a random video below of Kelly performing Darrell Banks' classic "Open The Door To Your Heart" live at London's Jazz Cafe in Jan 2020 ... why not?
