The Hounds of Finn is a high-energy Celtic folk-rock group forged from the roots of Celtic and American traditions. Based in St. Paul, MN, the Hounds perform Celtic folk-rock, Americana, and roots music from around the world, along with original material—topped off with a sprinkling of traditional Irish and Scottish tunes. The Hounds have been performing in and around the Minnesota music scene since 2007 and have produced two CDs and a live performance DVD (videos are available on YouTube). The band signed with Twin-Cities based record label New Folk in 2010, and is distributed in North America through Allegro.
