The 70-year-old soul singer-songwriter Robert Finley brings his rich blend of blues, soul and funk from the swamps of Louisiana to London for a night steeped in Southern storytelling and raw musical power.
Having cut his teeth in juke joints and gospel churches, Finley’s sound draws from every corner of the American South — fusing blues, soul, rock, swamp pop, and jazz into something entirely his own.
Over the years, he’s shared the stage with the likes of The Black Keys, Greta Van Fleet, and Nathaniel Rateliff, earning a reputation for his commanding voice, magnetic presence, and deeply personal songwriting.
With tales of surviving alligators, heartbreak and redemption, Finley’s songs are as vivid as they are timeless — full of grit, humour, and heart.
Don’t miss this rare chance to witness one of the last true bluesmen live at Islington Assembly Hall — a legendary performer still at the height of his powers.
