Tender Loving Empire’s eclectic indie troupe hailing from Hailey, ID.  Sporting steel drums, keys, and a sound that seems to continually redefine itself.

The long awaited debut full length from one of America’s hardest working bands at the apex of their abilities. Finn Riggins continues to prove why they’ve kept rock critics guessing during their 150+ live shows during the past year. A Soldier, A Saint, An Ocean Explorer is no exception, melding synthy, stoney, crunchy and poppy with inventive progressions and uncommon time signatures and downright weird sounds (bugs, toys, binary chanting etc.) From the opening growl of Glove Comprtmnt to the final ghostly strains of A President, A Pacifist, An Auto Restorer, Finn Riggins is burning down the U.S. two ears at a time.
