Craig Finn, best known as the frontman of The Hold Steady, returns with A Legacy of Rentals, his sixth solo album. Recorded with a 14-piece string section, it departs from his usual horn-driven sound. Produced by Josh Kaufman and exploring themes of memory—how we recall loved ones, changing places, and recent past events—the album continues Finn’s tradition of highly descriptive, narrative-driven lyrics, blending literary influences with musical ones like Bruce Springsteen and Paul Westerberg.
