Fionn Regan
Be Good Or Be Gone

Bella Union

WE SAY

This is the second single from Fionn Regan's brilliant album The End Of History. It has been a huge critical success since its release last year, and has deservedly been shortlisted for the Choice Music Prize. Fionn has also been nominated for two Meteor Awards: Best Irish Male and Best Irish New Act. He completes his UK tour next month and supports Damien Rice on his UK dates later this year. His guitar work is technically well judged and the vivid imagery created by his poetic lyrics make him one of the most engaging solo artists we've heard in a long time. Watch the very charming and innovative video, where they have re-recorded the track live across several different locations, here. (Win/Quick) JF London Gig: February 6, Dingwalls NW1
