Biography

From a very early age, Fin McDowell had a connection to music that was undeniable. Her parents tell her that she was singing songs before she could speak. With musical influences running the gambit from folk, Christian contemporary, country, Celtic, and pop, a beautiful style emerged. Over time Fin would derive her own authentic voice and style. Her writing is inspired by an eclectic group of artists like Imogen Heap, John Mayer, Lennon Stella, Lizzy McAlpine, and Sara Bareilles. Her own writing style shines through in intelligent, authentic lyrics paired with guitar or keys offering listeners introspection in an age of separation. Her debut single "Losing Game" exemplifies her style with engaging lyrics and a goosebump-inducing bridge and chorus. Written at the beginning of the pandemic, the song is a representation of emotions of self-doubt and inadequacy but also a resolution of overcoming those emotions. The song introduced Fin to a new worldwide audience, being heard by many on radio and Spotify. Fin’s latest release, “The Feeling" is a moody yet hopeful anthem for those wrestling with their own mental health issues, the loss of a relationship, or any departure from old ways to new. Fin has already been invited to perform at a number of stages throughout Western Canada with talented performers like Reuben and the Dark, JJ Shiplett, and The Static Shift. She was proud to be invited to showcase her talents at Canadian Music Week in Toronto in June 2022.
