Billie Eilish's brother Finneas names his favorite songwriters

Billie Eilish’s 'When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?' was produced by her brother Finneas, and he also co-wrote 12 of its 14 tracks with Eilish, while penning the other two on his own. Billboard asked him about the songwriters that have inspired him - "I have always loved Ben Folds, he's like an idol of mine, a hero of mine. The last couple years I've been really obsessed with Sara Bareilles. I just think she is, bar for bar, unbelievable at her songwriting... I've always loved Bill Withers. I've always loved John Mayer. And then, you know, I grew up on a lot of bands. So, The Strokes, Julian Casablancas' lyrics have always inspired me. I've always been inspired by My Chemical Romance's lyrics and melodies". Next thing for him? - a solo album.
