Fontaines D.C. is an indie band hailing from Dublin, Ireland. Formed in 2014 as Fontaines, the band came up with the idea of creating a Beatles punk band during a college night out. The same night, they booked a rehearsal space and embarked on their musical journey.

The band consists of talented members including Grian Chatten on vocals, Conor Deegan III on bass, Carlos O’Connell and Conor Curley on guitars, and Tom Coll on drums.

In 2019, Fontaines D.C. released their debut album which was highly acclaimed. It was shortlisted for the Mercury Music Prize and elected Rough Trade's Album of the Year for that year.

2020’s A Hero’s Death saw Fontaines D.C. land a #2 album in the UK, receive nominations at the GRAMMYs, BRITs and Ivor Novello Awards, and sell out London’s iconic Alexandra Palace. Now the band return with their third record in as many years: Skinty Fia. Used colloquially as an expletive, the title roughly translates from the Irish language into English as “the damnation of the deer”; the spelling crassly anglicized, and its meaning diluted through generations. Part bittersweet romance, part darkly political triumph - the songs ultimately form a long-distance love letter, one that laments an increasingly privatized culture in danger of going the way of the extinct Irish giant deer.
