Brian Timothy Finn (born June 25 1952) is a singer and songwriter and one of New Zealand's foremost musicians.

Born in Te Awamutu, New Zealand, Finn went to Sacred Heart College, a Catholic boarding school in Auckland, on a scholarship. In 1971 he went on to study Philosophy and Politics for a Bachelor of Arts degree at the Auckland University. The music practice room 129 (later featured in one of the Split Enz hits) appealed to him, where he jammed with friends Mike Chunn, Robert Gillies, Philip Judd and Noel Crombie. Music soon became more important to Brian than his studies and in mid-1972 he quit university.
