It’s always a joy to hear Fionn Regan’s gentle, rumbling voice, but when you hear it singing a melody that Joni Mitchell would give her last pack of cigarettes for, things tend to get a little bit special. On the surface, ‘North Star Lover’ is a fairly straightforward acoustic ballad with some lilting strings thrown in for good measure, but it also has enough emotional heft to charm even the most cynical of listeners (I should know). You’ll find it on the Bray man’s third album 100 Acres Of Sycamore, alongside 11 other dreamy 21st century sonnets.
