Fontaines D.C. announce new Tour passing through Sagres Campo Pequeno
Fontaines D.C. have just announced the “Romance European Tour 2024” which will take place in Portugal on November 1st, Friday, at Sagres Campo Pequeno, in Lisbon.
Tickets will be available on May 3rd, at 9am, at the usual locations and at everythingisnew.pt.
Scheduled for release on August 23rd, Fontaines D.C. will present their new album, ROMANCE – their fourth studio album, which questions amorphous concepts of love and relationships, alienation and identity, fantasy and reality. All of this converges in a central statement that Chatten sings in a chilling, inviting way, in the song that begins and names the album: “Maybe romance is a place”. Eleven songs constellate ideas that have been brewing between Grian Chatten (vocals), Carlos O’Connell (guitar), Conor Curley (guitar), Conor Deegan (bass) and Tom Coll (drums) since the number 1 album of 2022, Skinty Fia, and the US tour with Arctic Monkeys.
The album builds on the sonic sensibilities the band began experimenting with on Skinty Fia, now with dirtier textures, hip-hop breaks and beats, shoegazey tones and contemporary electronic sounds. Inspirations that come from the time they spent listening to Shygirl and Sega Bodega or artists like Outkast, The Prodigy and A$AP Ferg.
The structure of ROMANCE was defined in time spent separately, with experiments in Mexico, the Spanish countryside and Los Angeles, and an intense period of production together with producer James Ford (Arctic Monkeys, Blur) in a French castle. The album represents a provocative sonic and aesthetic era for the Dublin band, now based in London.
On November 1st, it’s time for Fontaines D.C. fans to watch the live and self-titled presentation of their fourth studio album at Sagres Campo Pequeno, in Lisbon.
