From the opening blast of energy on the power pop rockinâ title cut to the electronic pulse of the Bowie-esque final song âEarth Boyâ Regan Laneâs âDon't Mess With The Prettyâ is an eclectic, ambitious collection of intelligent pop and rock.
Seamlessly mixing crunchy guitars, country tinged pedal steel, bluesy harmonica and shiny strumming acoustics with a rhythm section as elastic as a rubber band Reganâs crafty pop evokes memories of John Lennon and talks about working for the man, how fast it all goes by, good days and bad days and of course a little sex, lust and love.

Modern and nostalgic, soft and hard, fast and slow, Regan Lanesâ âDonât Mess With The Prettyâ is a delightful addition to the catalogue of great pop that continues to come out of the Pacific Northwest!
