Today, Robert Finley released 'Sneaking Around,' the latest single from his upcoming album 'Black Bayou’—out this October via easyeyesound. We caught up with the bluesman this summer to talk about his journey through music so far:
Bluesman Robert Finley has lived in Louisiana for a long time. At 69 years old, his identity is fundamentally intertwined with its rich soil and complex history: the church spires dotting its small towns with such comforting regularity that it seems they’ve been there forever; the pelicans and alligators which flit and splash around endless, marshy creeks. It’s one of the U.S.’s Blackest states, and one of its most impoverished.
After getting connected with Black Keys frontman Dan Auerbach in 2017, Finley joined him on the Easy Eye Sound Revue tour the next year—opening for Auerbach and Shannon and the Clams. On his breakout 2021 album, Finley croons heartily about his upbringing, detailing afternoons spent under a burning sun, the missed school and aching joints wrought on him and his siblings as their father struggled to support them.
He recounts all of this to me in a tone that sounds semi-automatic, though perfectly engaged. It’s clear that he is happy to tell the story of his life, and it’s just as clear that he’s been made to do so dozens of times in his last few years of widespread, newfound success. He’s kind and patient as he makes his way through a history of his success which I must imagine is draining to recount in every interview, but I’m not sure it’s what he wants to talk with me about.
