Honor Finnegan is from the south side of Chicago. In her younger years, she cut her teeth as the lead in “Annie” touring in stage productions across the country. Her voice is crystal clear with a strong vibrato. She calls herself a ukulele diva. By day she is a special education preschool teacher in New York. Track 4 “Life is Short” offers sage advice for those dreading the loss of youth…“you’re gonna get old and die.” Track 5 “Internet Junkie” is an uptempo bluesy tune which pokes fun at the “world wide monkey” and those who must “Google it” all the while promoting her name! Recommended tracks: 6-8-9: “Pictures of Snow,” “Content” and “Undone” are soft, multi-instrument tunes with pleasant harmonies. -- Pam VandeKerkhoff
