Finneas and Billie Eilish have formed a strong partnership, both as siblings and collaborators.

While Finneas is the primary producer of all of Billie's music, he has also found time to focus on his own projects, including his second solo album, For Cryin' Out Loud!

In a recent episode of Spotify's vodcast Countdown To, Billie took on the role of interviewer, discussing Finneas' thoughts ahead of his album's October 4 release. "I think it's important to separate your taste from what you have to express," Finneas shared. "It's really not about you."

Finneas jokingly admitted that he sometimes feels like an "expansion pack" to Billie's fanbase, saying, "I'm sort of convinced I have no fans," but was pleasantly surprised when his upcoming solo shows in Los Angeles, New York, and Kingston Upon Thames quickly sold out.

The album, For Cryin' Out Loud!, is described as a collaborative effort with some of Finneas' closest friends, contrasting with the solitary experience of his debut album, The Optimist. "The reason I did it that way was to have fun!" Finneas explained, noting that jamming with friends was a key part of the creative process.

As for their sibling dynamic, Billie expressed her admiration for Finneas, saying, "I just look up to you so much and want you to have the best time."
