“‘Forget Regret’ is a phrase that I have tattooed on my neck.”
“To me it’s a way of looking at the past with an active positive attitude. There is so much more to do and experience. Why regret the past? It cannot be changed. The protagonist in the song sees it differently. He has committed all kinds of misdeeds but has reassured himself with the same mantra.
This character was inspired by some people I know who are absolutely capable or ripping and roaring through people’s lives with little visible remorse. I guess it can mean either. Enjoy!”

After touring relentlessly behind his last album Ghost Town Directory and receiving plaudits from sources like No Depression, Americana UK, and Big Takeover, on September 25th Ari Shine released Songs Of Solomon, his most honest and rugged batch of songs yet. It has also made the Grammy ballot for Americana album of the Year.
We’re delighted to exclusively debut “Forget Regret.”
