EVENT INFORMATION

ARIA HALL OF FAME INDUCTEE &
MUCH-LOVED SINGER/SONGWRITER RETURNS TO AUSTRALIA IN AUGUST. 

CELEBRATING 40 YEARS
OF THE ACCLAIMED DEBUT SOLO ALBUM & OTHER CLASSICS!

With special guest Jem Cassar Daley

Regarded as one of the greatest songwriters of his generation, New Zealand native Tim Finn is returning to Australia in August for three exclusive shows celebrating 40 years of his landmark debut solo album ‘Escapade’ and other classic Finn songs with a full live band!

“I’m excited to be playing these songs again and looking forward to sharing the moment with audiences in some beautiful old venues,” Finn said.

Originally released in 1983 (and recently reissued on coloured vinyl), Escapade’ was an immediate success, generating the hit singles ‘Fraction Too Much Friction,’ ‘Made My Day’ and ‘Staring At The Embers’ as well as fan favourites ‘In A Minor Key’ and ‘Through The Years.’ 

At the time, the album was an ambitious project, as it signaled Tim Finn breaking away from the hugely popular Split Enz, a band he co-founded in the early 1970’s. But Finn was to prove his critics wrong. ‘Escapade’ went on to become one of the biggest locally released albums of the early 80’s and took home the 1983 Countdown ‘Album of the Year’ Award, a significant pop-culture moment at the time.

 Now in 2025, Tim Finn is returning to the stage for a genuine full-circle moment, shining the spotlight on the album that kick-started his stellar solo career. And as was the case with the original album recording, Finn has assembled an incredible live band to join him onstage.

Having wowed audiences in 2023 with the sold-out ‘Lives & Times of Tim Finn’ tour along with recent appearances at the Big Red Bash and Mundi Mundi Bash, Finn was keen to keep the momentum and energy going. And while the focus this time will be on ‘Escapade,’ Finn will also include songs penned from across his career and time in Split Enz and Crowded House. 

This August experience the timeless songwriting of Tim Finn as he plays ‘Escapade’ and other classic songs from across his career for three exclusive shows only!
