Robin Finck Biography

Birthday Nov 7
Birth Year 1971

Robin Finck is one of the most popular and richest Guitarist who was born on November 7, 1971 in Park Ridge, New Jersey, United States. Guitarist for Guns N’Roses who also worked with Nine Inch Nails.

From 2000 to 2008, he played with Axlrose in Guns ‘N’ Roses.

He joined Nine Inch Nails as part of their touring band in 1994–95 for their Self-Destruct and Further Down the Spiral tours following the departure of previous guitarist Richard Patrick. Finck appeared with Nine Inch Nails at Woodstock ’94, and saw his first official release with them, the Closure video, released in 1997. Once the tour was completed, he took a job playing for the circus troupe Cirque du Soleil in the original tour of Quidam. In 1997 Finck signed a two-year contract with Guns N’ Roses as the replacement for Slash (who had quit the band at the end of the previous year) and began work on what was ultimately to become the band’s long delayed album Chinese Democracy. When the two years were up the album had not been completed, although the song “Oh My God” was released on the End of Days soundtrack. Whether or not Finck played on the song is in dispute; GNR vocalist Axl Rose says he did while Finck himself says he did not.

Finck rejoined Nine Inch Nails as the band embarked on their Fragility v1.0 and Fragility v2.0 tours in support of the 1999 album The Fragile. These tours were recorded and released as the live album/DVD, And All That Could Have Been, which marked Finck’s second release with them. He also played on a studio-recorded version of “The Day the World Went Away” on the companion album Still, which was included with the deluxe version of And All That Could Have Been and later made available as a standalone CD through nin.com. Shortly after the tour ended in 2000 he returned to Guns N’ Roses, playing four shows with them in late 2001 followed by a brief tour of Europe and Asia in mid-2002 and a live appearance at the MTV Video Music Awards. A planned US tour was meant to continue through the remainder of 2002 but was called off by the promoter after two cancelled shows led to rioting by fans. Around this time Finck and then-bandmate Buckethead contributed to the soundtrack of the John Carpenter movie Ghosts of Mars, playing alongside members of thrash metal group Anthrax and guitar virtuoso Steve Vai. After his touring obligations with GNR were fulfilled he joined the LedZAriel production (a performance by acrobats set to the music of the band Led Zeppelin).

He married Bianca Sapetto, a gymnast, in 2001. Later, he and Sapetto became parents to a girl.
