Thoroughly brilliant songsmith Fionn Regan has been named as support for daytime radio favourite Damien Rice on his forthcoming four-date UK 'tour'. Is four dates a tour?
The duo are currently on tour in Australia, and will return to these shores for the following events:
March
27 London Hammersmith Apollo
29 Wolverhampton Civic Hall
30 Manchester Apollo
31 Edinburgh Usher Hall
Mister Rice returns for another nine-date tour later in the year, fact fans. In the meantime, Regan embarks on his own headline tour of Ireland:
April
19 Dublin Whelans
20 Dublin Crawdaddy
22 Belfast Empire
25 Letterkenny An Grianan
26 Castlebar TF Royal
27 Galway Roisin Dubh
28 Limerick Dolans
29 Cork The Savoy
Regan is signed to Rice's record label Heffa in Ireland, and his debut album, The End Of History, is still excellent and out now on Bella Union in the UK. You can see the innovative video for latest single 'Be Good Or Be Gone' by clicking here. I reckon that'll open in Windows Media Player or something. You can also view it on the Fionn Regan MySpace.
Sorry to any fans of Damien Rice, I guess this article wasn't really about him so much. Er... his new album, 9, is out in all good record shops. That '9 Crimes' was alright, wasn't it?
