Fontaines DC

"I will not be attending these shows with Fontaines due to the little less imminent, yet a little more unpredictable, birth of my first child."

The band’s bassist, Conor “Deego” Deegan III, talks about the post-punk label, the expectation to represent Ireland, and storytelling upon the group’s first-ever visit to Australia.

"We apologise to all who were looking forward to seeing us at Laneway and hope to see you at the new dates."
