43 | Finnegan Tui | Echoes of the Old One: Following Songs Through Glowing Lights and Rolling Thunder
“Make me a melody, Old One, make me sure, remind me I’m the animal who dances for the dawn. I think we’re fading, Old One, lost indoors. We give our lives to glowing lights, it’s lonely like you warned. So I’ll be leaving, Old One, I can’t stay. Are there others who hear thunder rolling in and run out in the rain?”

Finnegan joins us for a soulful exploration of music as an artful practice of presence, myth, and remembering. We begin by reflecting on what it means to be a wild creature in a wired world—and how that tension shapes his creative process.
We discuss the lyrical roots of some of his music, the role of attention and curiosity in creation, and the journey from disenchantment to re-enchantment. Finnegan shares insights into how he tends to soul and beauty while engaging with the demands of visibility and digital culture.
What unfolds is a conversation about creativity as care, songwriting as devotion, and the longing to live in rhythm with something older and wilder than the modern world often allows—while still remaining rooted and responsive within it.
