On January 17, 2025, Finnegan Tui—a New Zealand-born, UK-based indie folk talent, debuted his new single ‘Fuel on the Fire’ through Eywa Music Ltd. Tui’s been stacking up cred with 7.7 million streams and airtime on BBC Radio 6, bolstered by a resume that includes supporting FINK across Europe and sharing stages with RY X, Elder Island, and Alejandro Aranda. He’s a festival regular too, with sets at Boomtown, Secret Garden Party, and International Forum Festival, and he’s locked in for Kernowfornia Festival later this year. His work with producers like Charlie Andrew and Niv Adir, plus coverage from The Guardian, Rolling Stone India, and NOTION, keeps the buzz growing. A sync deal with Walker Independence and packed headline shows at Omeara, La Boule Noire, and Lark round out a profile that’s hard to ignore.
‘Fuel on the Fire’, crafted by producer Jasper Trim and mixer Andrew Scheps, starts quiet with gentle guitar strums, letting Tui’s vocals that are velvety, intense, and full of feeling, carry the weight. It gradually expands into a sweeping soundscape, weaving in steady rhythms, aching strings, and subtle textures, all capped by a choral finish that hits like a quiet storm.
Finnegan Tui revealed: “‘Fuel On The Fire’* explores the poignant theme of no longer recognizing a loved one, yet it ultimately offers a message of redemption. It feels like a phoenix rising from the ashes, mirroring my own journey from loneliness to joy. I hope this song resonates with listeners, offering them light and strength in their own challenges.”
