Jeff Finlin calls us again to come his way with ten new songs strung together in the literate style of an American icon - The Tao of Motor Oil is another triumph for the American musical landscape.

Jeff Finlin is the constant purveyor of American road-worn minimalism, his songs as deeply etched as the lines upon his face. Finlin cements his place among the undergrowth of American literary greats.

Jeff Finlin is one of the best songwriters never heard of. Immediately accessible, his songs are identifiably multi-layered and worthy of countless listens, yet never overly intrusive, it's easy to see why Bruce Springsteen sites Finlin as one of his favourite songwriters.
