FIONN Get Grim About Death In Their New Video "I Might Start Smoking"--Small Canadian Tour On Now!

New to my ears as of today, but it is clearly a huge hit with over 31,000 YouTube subscribers and many on their socials as well.  This is not the typical kind of music that is sent my way, but I am always into supporting local talent and artists across the world. They 

Their new video "I Might Start Smoking"  the video was shot around the lower mainland and Pitt Meadows. In it, they are running from the Grim Reaper and find themselves on a road trip to unexpected fun and adventure.

"“At the beginning of the video, we pull a few unexpected tarot cards, which when read literally, mean the grim reaper will be knocking on our door in t-minus ten seconds. Unfortunately for us, this magic deck of tarot cards sends us on the run from death but leaves us destined to meet two token 70s rock stars in a fun fever dream along the way,” says Fionn."

They are on 604 Records, which is known for signing Carley Rae Jepson & Marianna's Trench, just to name a few.

""I Might Start Smoking sums up our second coming of age. We’ve found our early adulthood comparable to a brand-new form of childhood dizzying us with fresh experiences and chaotic emotions. We started working on this record over a year ago in our hometown White Rock, BC with Jared Maneirka. We made as many demos as we could and added only our favorites to a ‘quality folder’. We also spent hours in Max Cunningham’s home studio writing the title track while trying to find ways to lace Celtic accents into our alternative pop/rock creations. We then made it back to 604 studios (our second home) to write a few songs with our long-standing collaborator Kevvy Maher screaming angsty backup vocals and playing around with electric guitar tones, throwing it back to when we made our 2020 EP ‘Everyone’s a Critic,” explains Fionn.

From the Press Release from RPM Promotion

With over 3.6 million cumulative streams, 2.1 million YouTube video views, the cover of Next Magazine, a CBC Top 20 and Top 50 Alternative Rock single “TAKE ME OUT!” under their belts, Fionn are ones to keep an eye on. They have an incredible knack for songwriting that truly shines on their third studio album, I Might Start Smoking. Sparkling with the lyrical prowess of Taylor Swift and the rebellious attitude of Avril Lavigne, the sexy 12-track album features infectious bangers including, “Leo”,  “Goldfish”, and “18”. Call it a full-circle record for the alt-rock duo, they revisit the sound and spirit of their heralded first releases, though their path to this point has been anything but predictable. After all, the twin sisters only dropped their self-titled debut in 2018, though they’ve been quite prolific since, developing a songwriting palette and penchant in a few short years that even career artists would kill for.
