Fionn Regan

The Irish singer-songwriter from Bray whose debut The End of History (2006) opens with "Be Good or Be Gone".

Bray

Fionn Regan was born in 1981 in Bray, County Wicklow, and has been active since 2000 as a folk and folk-rock singer-songwriter on vocals, guitar, piano, harmonica and percussion. He has cited Bob Dylan and Neil Young as influences. Anvil Records issued his early EPs; Bella Union released his records in the UK from 2006, Lost Highway in the US, and Heavenly from about 2009 or 2010. He also has his own imprint.

The End of History was released on August 7, 2006 on Bella Union and Lost Highway, produced by Regan and recorded in 2005 and 2006, at 49:41 (53:35 with iTunes bonus tracks). The Bunkhouse Vol. 1 was recorded in a forest bunkhouse, voice and guitar only, and he told the Irish Post it came from instinct more than intellect.
