Nathan O'Regan’s 'Uncovered Vol.1': Soulful Tribute to Northern Ireland’s Hidden Gems

A love letter to Northern Ireland’s songwriting scene, and Nathan O'Regan's delivered it with warmth, sincerity, and a voice that lingers long after the music fades. Covering artists like Ciaran Lavery, Fiona Harte, MCVEIGH, Fiona O’Kane, and Gareth Dunlop, O'Regan showcases not only his own vocal talents but also his deep connection to these songs and the artists behind them. 

Each cover brings its own charm, but highlights like 'Follow You Down' (originally by Ciaran Lavery) and 'Is That What You Wanted?' (by MCVEIGH) really stand out. Lavery’s acoustic folk gets reimagined with O'Regan’s bluesy touch, turning the track into a slow-burn love song that envelops you like a warm embrace. Meanwhile, 'Is That What You Wanted?' showcases O’Regan’s vocal range and emotional depth, capturing the song’s energy while still making it feel deeply personal.

By the time the EP closes with Fiona O’Kane’s 'Strange People,' it’s clear that O'Regan isn’t just covering songs—he’s telling stories, each one filled with the melancholy, hope, and raw emotion that have shaped his own musical journey. 'Uncovered Vol. 1' isn’t just a collection of covers—it’s a heartfelt tribute to Northern Irish songwriting, and O'Regan's voice is the perfect vehicle to bring these hidden gems to light.
