The Finn Brothers

The Finn Brothers are a New Zealand musical duo consisting of brothers Neil and Tim Finn. In June 1993 both members were awarded the OBE for their contribution to music.

The two brothers began making music together at a young age; later, when Neil was 18, he was invited to join older brother Tim in Split Enz. Neil would go on to write one of the band's biggest hits, "I Got You". Tim released his first solo album Escapade before leaving Split Enz, and the band folded soon after. Neil started his own group, Crowded House and subsequently recorded two solo albums after Crowded House split in 1996. He reformed Crowded House in 2007, releasing four albums since then. Neil and Tim have also released a series of separate solo albums.

After working on a Finn brothers album with Neil, Tim joined Crowded House for the Woodface album in which they jointly wrote several major hits. Tim toured with Crowded House in 1991 and continued to appear as a guest musician until the band broke up in 1996.

The brothers finally released albums under the Finn Brothers moniker in 1995 and 2004.
