You will not be disappointed with FAGAN. They are even better live, recently gigged at Clacton Utd Football Club & have been asked to open the Brightlingsea Music Festival.
A fine collection of songs to entertain the neutral music lovers as well as their own ’hardcore’ fans week-in, week-out... An image which suitably fits their music along with meaningful lyrics which we can all relate to. ’Wait & See’ an evocative ballad which symbolises Fagan’s persona, after hearing this song the catchy chorus will be wedged in your head.

Fagan are a fantastic local band that we need to get behind and give our support to. Colchester had Blur we have Fagan, cant wait to catch them at "Party In The Park". Check out "I Look Back" in the links above, a beautiful ballad that appeals to all ages.

I have seen Fagan numerous times, and the songs never get old. With a blend of hard hitting rock riffs and melodic meaningful songs, they are one of essex's local bands definitely not to be missed.

Fantastic band - Indie music with several influences to produce an original sound that sticks in your head, catchy lyrics and you can't help but sing all day! I would buy their album, if they had one out!

A very talented local band! I have seen them at various venues particularly at their best at The Cockney Pride. Excellent musicians and the lead vocalist writes about things everyone can relate to. My personal favourite I look back, gets me every time. Each song is very individual and they keep you interested throughout their performance. I really hope that they get the chance they deserve to “Rock Castle Park” and make their mark on the local music scene!
