Finn Forster discusses his rise in the music industry and his upcoming UK headline tour.
Finn Forster is having a big year. From growing up in Middlesbrough to stepping onto stadium stages supporting Stereophonics, his rise has been impossible to ignore, and now he’s heading into his own UK headline tour. In this episode of Heard It Here First, we caught up with Finn ahead of Sound City Festival to talk about the journey so far, what it’s really like playing to thousands of people, and how it feels stepping into his own era as a headline artist. We also get into festival season, finding your sound, and what’s coming next. If you’re into discovering the next wave of UK artists before they blow up, you’re in the right place.
