Pagan Wanderer Lu is a one-man indie/electronica or 'Indietronica' band originally formed in Aberystwyth but now based in Cardiff. The act consists of Andy Regan (born in Bolton), who performs using a variety of instruments both synthesised and conventional, including Roland grooveboxes, an Omnichord, and 'the 'futuristic keyboard that plays itself' which was acquired at a Car boot sale.

In 2007 he began a group called 'The Volunteers' as his backing band. The members of this group are David Roberts, David Evans, and Laura Janes.

He also plays bass in Cardiff group Silence at Sea, and contributed to short-lived project 'A Conversation Piece' with Bobby Grindrod from Friends Of The Bride and Simon Love from The Loves.

He has also recently overseen the making and eventual release of the charity compilation Songs About Giant Isopods, featuring songs by such artists as himself, Paul Hawkins, Little My, Silence at Sea, The Silent Clothes and esteemed outsider musician Meles Meles amongst others.
