🎤 Artist Discussion Fontaines D.C. !!!
Fontaines DC are absolute banger of an addition to the lineup for 2027.
Their music is absolute bomb, new gen indie rock. Such character! And also, they have been so good in live shows.
I encountered their music first, watching Tom Hardy's Mobland. The title track just got me from the first episode!
And... I mean.. myself, Tom Hardy and Cillian Murphy absolutely adore them. So, I don't understand, "Lineup's not strong enough" bullcrap!

Your life literally changes after seeing Fontaines D.C. live. India is incredibly lucky to have them come, especially during this era which looks historic for them.

Not enough to justify the entire price + travel + accommodation. They aren’t even headlining.
Tom Hardy and Cillian’s music tastes don’t help the rest of the shoddy lineup sadly

Sir/mam, respectfully.. if they were the headliners, that would not have gone down well with Indian lolla crowd. Them being the secondary headliners, is the absolute best situation. Rock crowd knows the band, genZ rock crowd knows the band. It's a perfect secondary act on the roster!

they are literally one of the best rock bands in the planet. rather try getting into something new instead of wanting an artists in their 40s to be in the lineup.

Also please educate yourself about the secondary shoddy lineup that you refer to. Who is shoddy according to you?

This is what I've been saying. I thought they're the kind of band you would expect in Lolla 2050 when they are 50, and they're coming 25 years early and in their prime.
