Blood Harmony

Blood Harmony is the debut extended play by American singer-songwriter FINNEAS. The EP was released through his own record label OYOY, which is part of AWAL (Artists Without A Label), on October 4, 2019. The length is 23 minutes and 15 seconds. The EP includes the singles "I Lost a Friend", "Shelter" and "I Don't Miss You At All".

Background
According to Genius Finneas talked about the EP and said "I would love for this title to remain ambiguous to listeners and for everyone to be able to imbue it with their own meaning and justification. The most common use of the term’ blood harmony’ is an English expression for what it sounds like when siblings sing together, that biologic chemistry—I think that speaks for itself."

Finneas also told Coup de Main that Blood Harmony would act as a bridge into his next album, wich will be released in 2020 "I think I wanted to have something that represented me in a slightly more concrete way than singles do. I wanted to have a project that made somewhat of a statement, and I think an EP kind of bridges a gap to an album, and I think I’ll probably put out an album in 2020, so I wanted to make sure to get an EP in this year."

While with iHeartRadio Finneas said "I wrote it while I was on tour over the past year, and I recorded it all on tour pretty much over the summer. The stereotype is that it’s really hard to write on tour and it’s really hard to record on tour. And I think that’s partially true because your surroundings are not that different every day. It’s a little bit like Groundhog Day on tour: You wake up, you’re either on a tour bus or you take a flight; You go to a city you’ve maybe never been to before, you go to a venue, you soundcheck, have a meal, play a show, go back on the tour bus. It’s a very similar day every day. But, writing songs is my favorite thing ever. And when we started touring, I just was like, ‘listen, if I don’t learn how to write songs on the road..’ I’m only home a third of the year, so… I’ve got to figure out how to tour and write at the same time. And I’ve been much happier ever since I figured out how to do that."
