Anne Finley - Acoustic Guitar / Sax / Vocals / Keys

BIOGRAPHY

 Keswick Ontario based recording artist, singer/songwriter Anne Finley has been performing since the tender age of six.  Raised in Pefferlaw, she has performed at various venues throughout Ontario since the early 90’s. Anne has enjoyed working with some of Canada’s top musician’s like Don McDougall (Colin Amey’s band Sleeping Giant), Paul ‘Chappie’ Chapman, Wendell Ferguson as well as sharing the stage with Aaron Prichett and The Road Hammers. A little closer to home Anne and her band have been a regular feature for the Annual P.A.R. Picnic in Pefferlaw as well as performing at the Sutton Fair and the Fergus Truck Show.

What makes Anne a little (lot!) different from most female artists is she’s a bona-fide trucker!  Anne was named to the 2009/2010 Road Knight Team by the Ontario Trucking Association in February 2009.  (www.ontruck.org) When she’s not rolling down the road, she’s performing her music.

Anne’s Radio singles ‘Playin Second Fiddle’ & ‘Missing Piece’ receive airplay across Canada, Australia and The Netherlands and Georgina’s own NISH Radio. 

Anne has been featured on the Canadian Trucking News Radio and on xm171 Satellite Radio as well as being the ‘Feature Artist’ for Fort McMurray Alberta’s Country Radio Station. These shows profiled Anne’s driving career as well as her music.

Anne has a powerful distinctive voice, definitely one of the best female voices on the music scene.  Backed by her band ‘BAR NONE’, a great group of musicians, each band member having over 20 plus years of touring and performing to their credit.

 One thing is for certain, Anne’s soaring vocals will leave you wanting more!
