2004, Erie Recordings
Regina Hexaphone’s long-anticipated debut album “The Beautiful World” is the record fans have been waiting for. With a penchant for experimentation, for taking simple song structures and breaking up old ways of seeing them, the 12 songs on "The Beautiful World" boil just beneath the visible surface: ice, insects, dreams, highways, trees, danger; love lost, locked, and radiant. Members Sara Bell (Shark Quest, Dish, and other Chapel Hill, NC area bands), Margaret White (touring member of Cat Power, Sparklehorse, and Belle and Sebastian), Chris Clemmons, and Jerry Kee have created a record that is a sweeping scenic journey that will lodge itself firmly in the listener’s heart. Guests on “The Beautiful World” also include original drummer Zeke Hutchins (current Tift Merrrit drummer), Polvo's Ash Bowie, Varnaline's Anders Parker, and Shark Quest's Chris Eubank.
