Fionn Regan has fine-tuned a sensibility of his own since the acoustic poetry of his debut album, 2006’s Mercury-shortlisted The End of History. Since then, he has travelled between band-based detours and the gleaming likes of 2011’s 100 Acres of Sycamore, whose worry-worn beauty Dogwood Blossom drew new audiences when it found kindred spirits in two TV shows, romantic lockdown hit Normal People and Shane Meadows’s This Is England 86. Oscar-winning actor Cillian Murphy featured in the video for 2017’s The Meeting Of The Waters while elsewhere Regan has been nominated for Choice, Meteor Ireland and Shortlist awards, sampled by Bon Iver, photographed by Annie Leibovitz for Vanity Fair and made an honorary member of the Trinity College Literary Society. “I feel really lucky in the sense that the music I make has its own climate or landscape,” says Regan.

Fionn Regan’s journey as an Irish singer-songwriter is marked by both critical and commercial success his deeply resonant music has built a loyal following worldwide, ensuring consistently high demand for his intimate and emotionally charged live performances.

“I had a craving for something minimal,” says Fionn of the road to his eighth album. Arriving swiftly after 2024’s acclaimed O Avalanche, new album Berlin, Berlin – so good he named it twice – is Fionn’s answer to that urge. Stark yet resonant, poetic and pure, the record is a work of intuitive intimacies and radical self-containment: untouched by time, trend or premeditation, it’s a distilled expression of what happens when a natural talent lets his instincts lead the way.
