Neil Finn's World is Colliding…..again

Neil Finn's World is Colliding…..again

Neil Finn is at it again. It was seven years ago when Neil Finn called on a group of musical friends to create 'Seven Worlds Collide'. Over Christmas 2008 and New Year 2009, Neil will bring together the same core band of Johnny Marr, Phil Selway, Ed O'Brien, Sebastian Steinberg and Lisa Germano, along with Liam Finn, to expand the 'Seven Worlds Collide' concept and create a studio album of brand new material in the surroundings of Roundhead studios in Auckland. Other guests contributing their time and talent to the album will include four members of Wilco, Jeff Tweedy, John Stirratt, Glenn Kotche, and Pat Sansone. KT Tunstall is also confirmed, as are Neil's musical friends from NZ, Don McGlashan and Bic Runga. More guests are expected to be added to the album lineup over the coming weeks.
All proceeds from the recording will go to support the work of Oxfam International.

The recording will be mixed by Jim Scott, a master recording engineer who has worked on albums with Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Wilco, Lucinda Williams, Foo Fighters and the late great Johnny Cash.
