Auckland based indie-rock quartet Artisan Guns have produced an amazing video for their version of Crowded House’s Private Universe which appears on the recent compilation He Will Have His Way.
Beautiful stuff and their best video yet!
He Will Have His Way: The Songs of Tim & Neil Finn is out now and you can purchase it worldwide. Preview every track from the stunning album here.
The Finn Brothers may have a global legacy, but every Aussie and Kiwi holds at least one Crowded House song dear to our Southern Cross branded hearts…
OK, all schmaltz aside, the Finn Brothers have concocted some of the most iconic and stunning tracks in living memory.
To honour the legendary Tim and Neil, some of the nation’s most diverse and favourite talents have pulled together to create He Will Have His Way: The Songs of Tim & Neil Finn… and it’s freakin’ stunning.
He Will Have His Way is the male sequel to 2005’s universally acclaimed She Will Have Her Way and features the likes of Paul Kelly, Jimmy Barnes, Paul Dempsey, Chris Cheney, former members of Midnight Oil [as The Break] and Empire Of The Sun’s Luke Steele [as The Sleepy Jackson]. They are joined by more recent acts such as Boy & Bear, Art Vs Science, Philadelphia Grand Jury, Angus Stone, Dan Sultan, Oh Mercy, Artisan Guns and more… here’s the full tracklisting:

And don’t you worry that there are two versions of Better Be Home Soon. In true Luke Steele fashion, The Sleepy Jackson’s version is pretty damn unique. In fact give all the tracks a whirl here!
Every now and then a special band comes along.
Unassuming and humble, just doing what they do, which just happens to be making great music.
Auckland’s Artisan Guns are one of those bands.
Following the delicious first taste Autumn, this new single Into The Cold boasts a fantastically simple video that shows off some of that stunning Kiwi landscape.
Taken from their second EP Hearts, set for release on June 18th
