Music News - Andrew Fagan reveals new track 'On Channel Me', from forthcoming album 'Act Normal'
30 August 2019 - 0 Comments
Andrew Fagan returns with a satirical take on today’s social media preoccupied society. Being an amateur social anthropologist, it is a topic close to his heart. Listen to new track On Channel Me below, off Fagan’s forthcoming solo album Act Normal, due for release in October on Southbound.
“This culture of unselfconscious self-promotion and relentless emotive connectivity redefines the concepts of self-absorption and self-obsession. Personally I find it all a bit unnecessary. It also makes it harder for me to get noticed…” says Fagan.

An understated master songwriter of societal observation, Fagan has created a frantic and frenetic commentary on the compulsion to overshare information on social media channels, and the vanity that creates.
Fagan’s career spans over 40 years, from his time as frontman of New Wave group The Mockers to his ongoing solo career. His solo material over the years, performing with his band Fagan and The People, includes Sardonic Social Commentary classics such as Exciting, Astonishment, Now You Know, Blame Me, Get Light, Religion, Messiah and Jerusalem.
Fagan’s last release, the spoken word album of poetry titled It Was Always Going To Be Like This coincided with his New Zealand tour with John Cooper Clarke in 2018.
