Fink began as the performing alias of British DJ/electronic musician Fin Greenall, who started out making downtempo trip-hop before expanding the project into a more songwriting-focused indie band. From 1997 to 2003, Greenall focused on electronic music and DJ'd internationally, releasing in 2000 his debut album Fresh Produce on Ninja Tune. Since the 2006 release of his album Biscuits for Breakfast, the name Fink has also referred to the recording and touring trio fronted by Greenall himself, completed by Guy Whittaker (bass) and Tim Thornton (drums).
