Fontaines DC

Fontaines D.C. will headline their largest Australian shows to date next month.

With under a month to go, festival organisers have added a bunch of heavy hitters to the lineup, joining the likes of Denzel Curry, Fontaines D.C. and more.

Fontaines D.C. are touring Australia following the release of their fourth album, 'Romance,' released earlier this year.

On their fourth album in five years, Irish quintet Fontaines D.C. have gotten experimental. Guitarist Conor Curley takes The Music to the place that is the band’s new album, ‘Romance’.

"Every year, we’ve been criticised for being too rock, too grime, too hip hop, too pop… it’s just part of our year."

On 'Romance', Fontaines D.C. found inspiration in artists as diverse as OutKast and Korn.

After a long period of uncertainty surrounding Australian festivals' sustainability as a whole, Laneway feels hopeful.
