Fionn Regan's chirpy rhythms, repetitive melodies, and poetic lyrics keep the listener mesmerised from the start. The result is hauntingly beautiful and devastatingly understated. Hailing from Ireland, Regan absorbed folk and blues influences alongside the usual rock & roll which filter through his music. Nominated for a Mercury Prize in 2007 for his debut The End Of History, Regan has just signed a deal with Heavenly Records who will release his second offering The Shadow Of An Empire in early 2010.
