Fionn Regan

Acclaimed Irish artist Fionn Regan returns today with a new single “Islands”, the first taste of an upcoming album due out later this year via label group Nettwerk. Written in Mallorca and rippling like the sea, “Islands” uses images of the sun and moonlit dances on Spanish sand to set a dreamy scene. Buoyant and urgent, the song introduces his upcoming record’s world with a kind of classicist immediacy; it seems to arrive fully formed, as if the space it evokes is eternal.

“When I wrote the song it was like there was something cosmic about it, because it doesn’t sound like my other songs” says Regan. “I felt like it was almost a gift from The Beatles or whatever wellspring they drew on. I remember being in Mallorca and thinking, ‘Were The Beatles ever here?’ Not that I’m saying it’s on their level but it has some sort of cosmic flow to it.”

“Islands” is Fionn Regan’s first new material since his sixth album Cala which was released to universal acclaim in late 2019. Additionally, Regan has announced the “Before The Avalanche Tour”; six live dates in Ireland plus an intimate London show at St Pancras Old Church in November. All dates are listed below.
