Neil Finn Official Website
The new solo album Dizzy Heights will be mastered at Sterling Sound tomorrow. The final mixes are done and the track sequence sorted. Neil gave the album a good road testing today, disappearing out west for a few hours.
As promised, later on in October we’ll have more news about the album and the upcoming world tour.
Crucible – The Songs of Hunters and Collectors is due out on Liberation on September 27th.
Have a listen to Neil Finn and Eddie Vedder covering the classic “Throw Your Arms Around Me”.
Earlier this week, Neil answered possibly the most important question anyone’s asked him in a while:
@IzzyH4229 yes ..there will be vinyl

Looking forward to Neil’s new solo album coming out in early 2014. Coincidentally, the neilfinn.com office was playing Pajama Club’s 2011 vinyl release in the weekend. Drop the needle on the video below.
A month ago, Neil tweeted about the upcoming Falls festival:

It was a big clue, but few knew at the time that Neil was giving away his album title.
Neil talks a bit about his new solo album, Dizzy Heights (due early 2014) in this interview published today:
