Regular John have had an incredible five months since their debut Triple J feature album exploded through the airwaves and headphones of the nation’s youth. Their incredible live set has garnered them much praise and high accolades from gig-goer’s and Australian media, and support slots with Monster Magnet and Children Collide.

To coincide with this the band will be launching the brand new film clip for “Transmitter”
