(Finished January 18th, 2026) Part 1 of Getting To Know Fontaines D.C.

Hello,

This blog is inspired by seeing an Olivia Rodrigo video on YouTube- she talked about this band. I had heard of them, but that’s all. However in a search of always the best music I have been doing a deep dive into their music. Today is only Day 1 of that deep dive, thus I haven’t really had much time to dig deep. And I love the Irish brogue of the singer Grian Chatten.

How did I pick these songs since I know very little about Fontaines D.C.? Easy, these are the singles that were released by Fontaines D.C. from 2017 to last year.

1) “Liberty Belle”:

I’m not sure why these two songs are linked as one when they are two songs. 2a) “Hurricane Laughter”:

2b) “Winter In The Sun”:

3a) “Chequeless Reckless”:

3b) “Boys In The Better Land”:

4) “Too Real”:

5) “Big”:

6) “Roy’s Tune”:

This song was released again after the band got a bit more popular. Since my first video for this song was live, I’m going to put the studio track here. 7) “Boys In The Better Land”:

8) “A Hero’s Death”:

9) “I Don’t Belong”:

10) “Televised Mind”:

11) “A Lucid Dream”:

12) “A Hero’s Death (Soulwax Remix)”:
