Cobhman Mick O’Regan Releases Second CD – ‘Downtown Stories’

“The album, the second release from Mick, is heavily influenced by Mick’s years growing up in Cork, Ireland, and the latter years living in the UK trying to hold on to himself, his identity, his constant rebellion against conformity, complication and bedevilment. There’s dancing, fun, mellowness, madness, softness, roughness, drink, lack of drink, bitterness, great joy, hangings, an angel in the form of a blind German…….Life really doesn’t have to be as complicated as we are lead to believe. We need a simplicity in life these days, which is unfortunately lacking. And most of all, we need a good oul sing-song! So, come on…get up and join in! ”

The new CD is on sale around Cobh at Supervalue, Curley’s, Gilmores Bar, Hi-Chapperal, and is also available to buy or download as mp3 online from iTunes, Amazon, CDBaby, Lastfm and the other usual download sites.

About Mick O’Regan

Mick has been involved around the music scene in Ireland since the early 70’s. He was a founder member of the cult folk-rock favourites TINGUMAJIG. He has been constantly writing songs, stories, plays and performing solo and in groups since TINGUMAJIG disbanded. He released his debut solo album entitled “DENNIS REGAN” (named after a fictitious toothless, blind ballad singer who lived in Mick’s imagination!!) in 2009 which sold well in Ireland and in the US. His work speaks of simplicity in life. He is constantly in rebellion against the forces that would complicate our lives for their own gain – Political Correctness….. Managementspeak and it’s invention of a new language….. those who tell us our lives are incomplete without HD Television….. Most of all, Mick believes, we are always in need of a good oul sing-song….. He has just released his second CD entitled DOWNTOWN STORIES which is already selling well with a lot of radio play in Ireland and the UK. Buy it, turn it up and join in……..
