+ announce November tour
(Cork, Kerry, Belfast, Galway, Dublin)
The Fynches is the brainchild of brothers Ferdia and Oisín Walsh-Peelo, who, along with drummer Camryn Teehan, have forged a distinct sound blending vocal harmonies with an eclectic folk-rock aesthetic. They have a strong vocal-harmony sound which echoes the likes of CSN, The Band, and The Beach Boys. With two acclaimed double A-sides, high-profile appearances on The Late Late Show and Fanning at Whelan’s, and performances at The Olympia Theatre, the group is now focused on recording their highly anticipated debut album.
Today (Friday, 25th October), The Fynches release their new single Too Late, continuing their string of single releases. Reflecting on the song’s creation, Oisín Walsh-Peelo shares:
“In 2023 myself and Ferdia went on a writing trip to the stunning Pyrenees mountains of Spain. We wrote a plethora of new music but also revisited ideas that had swirled around our heads for years. This song was one of the latter. The moment we finalised the song’s format and lyrics, we put it down on tape straight away. No computers – just a 4-track machine from the 80’s. We didn’t think much more about it but while recording our debut album in 2024, we decided to try and record the ‘album version’ of ‘Too Late’. We did several takes but could never recapture that first beautiful moment when everything was new and fresh. In a way, that is what this song is about but in the context of a relationship. That meaning extended for us to the very nature of art and music and why we make it. We decided to release the first take, warts and all. It displays another side of the music we make with The Fynches and, in hindsight, the setting amplified the song’s emotional depth and captured the vulnerable aesthetic that we sought.”

ABOUT THE FYNCHES:
From their humble beginnings, the Walsh-Peelo brothers were steeped in the classical arts, nurtured by the tender hand of their mother, a virtuoso soprano. Later, Oisín honed his skills touring and recording with bands like Villagers, Flyte, Hudson Taylor and Bombay Bicycle Club, while Ferdia found fame on the silver screen when he attained the lead role in John Kearney’s Sing Street. He also stars in the multi-Oscar-winning film CODA (best-picture), Pistol (Danny Boyle) and the upcoming ‘Four Letters of Love’ (starring Pierce Brosnan & Helena Bonham-Carter).
The journey of The Fynches is one defined by passion, perseverance, and an unwavering belief in the transformative power of music. From their classical roots to their forays into the world of film and acting, they have remained steadfast in their commitment to the art form that binds them together. With Camryn Teehan providing the rhythmic heartbeat that drives their sound forward, The Fynches stand as a testament to the enduring power of collaboration and creativity.
