Regret the hour distance
Regret the Hour is a four-piece American indie rock band from Nyack, New York, formed by brothers Nate and Ben McCarthy, and eventually joined by high school friends Anders Fleming and Jesse Yanko. The band's sound is defined by chiming, churning guitar melodies reminiscent of early U2, a dynamic and versatile rhythm section, and the distinctive, intimate quality of singer Nate McCarthy's voice, which is said to endow the band's music, particularly their live performances, with startling power and sincerity.

History
In November 2012, bass player and founding member Jesse Yanko, 16, died after a battle with stage-four rhabdomyosarcoma. Following Yanko’s death, in the Spring of 2013, Regret the Hour released their first full-length record, “Better Days,” a completely-DIY effort that Yanko helped write and record at a now-demolished factory building in Nyack, NY. The album drew acclaim for its standout tracks "Walls" and "The Runaway."
Recently the band has worked on a new EP with producer/engineer/musician D. James Goodwin (Devo, Norah Jones, the Bravery, Murder by Death) at his Woodstock, NY studio. The EP is slated for official release this Fall. The band is currently working on a new, full-length record, being produced and recorded by Aaron Bastinelli in Brooklyn, NY.
Influences
The band has cited a range of major musical influences including Bob Dylan, Neil Young, the Band, and Van Morrison, as well as 80's post-punk and British alternative rock music of the 1990s.
