Fionn Regan

I first learned about Fionn Regan on a limb. I found his name in an advertisement of Now for upcoming shows. He played the Rivoli, probably three years ago and won me over completely.

When he played his first single "Be Good or Be Gone" off his album The End of History, he stopped singing to let people join in. No one sang, and he said over his playing "This is where you guys are suppose to sing". Everyone joined in after and enjoyed this moment of the newly emerging artist.

He came back shortly after that show, either later that year or a year later and played the Horseshoe. We've yet to cross paths again, I really hope he plans another tour.

Regan is from Ireland, go figure with a good Irish name like Fionn.
