Neil Finn and Liam Finn's first album together, Lightsleeper, is due out Aug. 24 via Inertia/PIAS. The lead single is "Back To Life." As it's a family affair, it's entirely fitting that the story of Lightsleeper begins at a wedding and here the album opens with a gift from father to son on his wedding day, "Together, Together," the chorus of 'Island of Peace’ begins. 

Recorded mainly in Neil's Auckland studio, Lightsleeper features Sharon Finn - Neil's wife, and Liam's mother - on bass for two of the songs. Elroy Finn - Liam's brother - handles drums on seven. Mick Fleetwood, Neil Finn's new bandmate in Fleetwood Mac, turns up to play on three tracks.
