The Soundtrack to Your (Romantic) Life
You’re standing at a subway station and your eyes land on a special someone. Suddenly your heart starts beating like crazy. Music swells in your head, and your life begins to feel like a movie. Then the alarm clock goes off and you awake alone in bed. Damn! While dream evaporates into day, one is left hearing the music. The idyllic sounds of Irish singer/song-writer Fionn Regan.
Regan’s new album 100 Acres of Sycamore is poised to make a big impression stateside when it’s released at the end of January. Both utterly romantic and deeply provincial, the music yearns and grows throughout the raw studio album that was recorded in a mere seven days. Regan shows some serious musical diversity, laying tracks with huge orchestral sounds and minimal guitar melodies. Boasting unique indie qualities, the album proves that this lad is no flash in the pan with his sentimental lyrics that are sure to bring a smile to your face.
It’s the epic kind of love that makes us weak in the knees…
