Finken has spent nine years in the midwest music scene - with the most recent three allowing her to become a full-time artist and band leader.
In 2012, Bonne independently branched out to work and travel just shy of two years to complete her new album, collaborating with the multi-platinum talents of Brandon Darner (producer - Imagine Dragons), Michael Krompass (producer - Nelly Furtado, Smash Mouth) and Matt Sepanic (engineer/mixing - Slipknot).
Using both piano and a digital audio workstation, Bonne maps out her arrangements with electronic instrumentation and then enters the studio to partially and purposefully re-recorded with live instrumentation via hired studio musicians.
Seasoned live musicians join Bonne during her live shows, along with a DJ that mixes sounds straight from the album to a live setting.
