Abbotfinney's namesake is a mysterious, yet clever, take on the wit of popular culture. Obviously citing Abbott of <a href="spotify:artist:2aYDKatB8JT71pcdbjcgKS">Abbott & Costello</a>, and Finney from the John Knowles' novel A Separate Peace, this modern rock four-piece originates from Washington and positively refrains from the stereotypical findings of Seattle's '90s grunge scene. Frontman Jeffrey Alan, who started his music career supporting gigs for <a href="spotify:artist:0DW7boyjvbaSP3OJ72sXgC">Al Stewart</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:2D2qwEatKbBSKhBCfP6lyn">the BoDeans</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:2pdvghEHZJtgSXZ7cvNLou">Crosby, Stills & Nash</a>, came together with guitarist Keith Wright, bassist Philip Georgas, and drummer <a href="spotify:artist:57fSewbSHZdpFlOeHjdNKD">Scott King</a> in the late '90s. Abbotfinney plays into crisp melodies and abrasive lyrics to cast a shimmering slice of pop harmony. Their self-titled debut was released in mid-2000, achieving critical acclaim via Internet radio with several singles becoming mainstays on LiquidAudio.com. ~ MacKenzie Wilson, Rovi
