Irish folk musician Fionn Regan has just announced he’s bringing his Ireland 2027 Tour to select venues across the country in February/March 2027.

“I had a craving for something minimal,” says Irish singer/songwriter Fionn Regan 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.
Illuminated by Regan’s innate sense of poetry, drama and impressionistic storytelling, it is, however, all the better for not being over-thought. As he explains, “One of the things with the album is I made it fast – super-fast. Five days, maybe six days. I wanted the songs to feel like maybe the record is something that’s come straight out of the ground. It’s like the ‘first thought, best thought’ kind of approach. That kind of slightly [Jack] Kerouac-y idea of just doing something, not thinking about it, and then making it.”
Regan has been following where his songs lead 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.
