SEAN REGAN

Born in Manchester in 1971 to Irish parents, Sean grew up amidst an already vibrant traditional Irish music scene, fuelled by thousands of Irish that moved to the UK in the late fifties and early sixties. Of course, this diaspora was not just confined to the North West of England, but affected every major city in the UK.
At work and in the pubs and clubs the Irish came together, music was like a glue and played a major part in strengthening connections and friendships whilst away from home .

At the same time Manchester was a melting pot of all cultures, these were the halcyon days of Manchester's pop rock culture, and the city was literally alive with every kind of music imaginable.

In the early nineties, Sean joined Manchesters Celtic Rocks Powerhouse
(Toss The Feathers)
teaming up with flautist Michael McGoldrick.
