Summary
- Fontaines D.C. debuted two new songs in Spain over the weekend.

- The band confirmed they were working on new material earlier this year.
Irish band Fontaines D.C. unveiled two brand-new songs during their recent concerts in Cadiz, Spain. These performances marked the first live shows of the year for the acclaimed group.
The new tracks, identified as "Marianne" and "Six Shot Morning," were featured in the band's 19-song setlists. Early reception suggests these songs incorporate darker and more electronic sonic elements, signaling a potential evolution in the band's sound.
Fontaines D.C. had previously confirmed earlier this year that they were engaged in writing new music. This announcement by guitarist Carlos O'Connell suggested a productive period for the band.
The group's 2024 album, "Romance," received Grammy nominations for Best Rock Album and Best Alternative Music Performance. This recognition highlights their recent success.
Tragically, the band's longtime manager, Trevor Dietz, passed away in June at the age of 47. The band remembered him as their "sixth member," emphasizing his significant role in their journey.
Following their Spanish dates, Fontaines D.C. are scheduled for further performances in France, Switzerland, and Austria. They are also slated for festival appearances in the United States, including Shaky Knees Festival, Sea.Hear.Now, and Ohana Festival.
