Am 27.01.2011 veröffentlicht CRAIG FINN sein Soloalbum "Clear Heart Full Eyes" bei Full Time Hobby. Die 11 Songs wurden aufgenommen und produziert mit Mike McCarthy (Spoon, ...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead).
Nach FINNs eigenen Worten lehnen sich die Songs seines Soloalbums eher an Americana und traditionelleren Songschreibern an und überzeugen durch die Schlichtheit von Melodie und Worten.
"In July 2011, I went to Austin Texas to make a record. The Hold Steady was on a four month break, and I wanted to try something a little different. Earlier in the year, I had written a bunch of songs that were outside of the norm for The Hold Steady, a little quieter and perhaps more narrative. I also wanted to gain some experience and insight into the process of making a record by working with new people. It was July in Austin. It was hot. Really hot."
