As reported on Fionn Regan’s homepage, my favorite artist of 2006 (and one of the first things I blogged about here once I started this blog) has signed to Lost Highway, home to, among others, Johnny Cash for his last decade.

They will be giving The End of history a US release on July 10. Seriously: get ready to buy this album.

A double bonus[1] that was announced yesterday is that he’ll be playing the Cafe du Nord (one of america’s top 40 venues):

8/4 Jason Isbell w/ Fionn Regan @ the Cafe du Nord, 9:30pm, $14, 21+

I’m trying to get a full list of tourdates and I’ll update this when I find them.

[1] A bonus for you, that is; a disaster for me: I’m flying out of town that night. So I might have to see him play in LA or Portland or something instead.
