Finch is a rock band from Temecula, California, USA. They are signed to Drive-Thru Records, home of New Found Glory and The Starting Line.
The band were formed in the late '90's, initially going under the name 'Numb'. Their debut, the Falling Into Place EP, provided listeners with a tantalizing glimpse into the groups obvious talent and musical potential. Even though the EP only features four songs, each track is a superb conglomeration of emo and unbridled aggression and had sold over 6,000 copies by the end of '01 - a great feat for such a small, new band.
Their debut album soon followed later that year. In August/September 2001, the band holed up at Big Fish studio in Encinitas, CA to begin working on its first full length. At the helm was Mark Trombino, whose production and engineering work has brought out the best in Jimmy Eat World, Blink 182, Midtown and many others.
The result of their collective labors is 'What It Is To Burn', a collection of tracks filled with both aggressive hardcore breakdowns (Project Mayhem), heartwrentching vocals (Letters to you) and the almost perfect post-hardcore/pop 'Ender' it covers the entire emotional spectrum.
After touring extensivly in support of this CD, Finch made a contribution to the Underworld soundtrack (Worms Of The Earth) in 2004, and that track was also on "Atticus... Dragging The Lake 2". Finch recently released their album Say Hello To Sunshine on June 7, 2005 and are touring the UK.
