When Ashe and Finneas, both incredible singer-songwriters on their own merits, announced they’d be forming a band - The Favors - and releasing a full LP this fall, our curiosity was immediately sparked. They gave the world a first taste of what a collaboration between the two of them could sound like in 2021, with the haunting ‘Til Forever Falls Apart’, and have only expanded on their incredible vocal chemistry with this new project.

The Favors - the collaborative project of FINNEAS and Ashe - have released ‘Times Square Jesus’, the final preview of their highly anticipated debut album The Dream, arriving 19 September.

Close your eyes and picture this: a breezy summer night, a classic amphitheatre in an extravagant villa, on a beautiful hill looking out onto Italy’s biggest lake. AND, your favourite artist is about to perform live right in front of you and a little over a thousand other lucky fans. This dreamy scenario is where we found ourselves in the small town of Gardone Riviera, on Lake Garda, as we eagerly awaited for Finneas O’Connell and his band to make their appearance.
