Info for Chaos For The Fly



Chaos For The Fly is the debut solo album from Grian Chatten, vocalist of Dublin's critically-acclaimed band Fontaines D.C.

Rare moments of respite from a relentless touring schedule afforded Chatten the opportunity to start work on something for himself, occupying a completely different headspace from his hugely successful work within Fontaines D.C. Co-produced by the band's longstanding producer Dan Carey, the album is arguably the most poetic we've heard from Chatten. Each song here has a sweep of colour and textures that breathe life into his lucid tales. Over it's nine tracks, Chaos For The Fly is a record that takes in all of life's rich emotions, transporting the listener to a place you not only want to visit, but will find yourself returning to again and again.

Grian Chatten



Grian Chatten
Ireland's premier post-punk quintet Fontaines D.C. are generating a reputation for being one of indie rock's most exciting acts. Across five years and three albums, the five-piece have attracted fans the world over with their abrasive, punk-inspired vocals, catchy melodies, and quick-paced rhythms -- a formula that grows even more powerful in a live setting.

Band members Grian Chatten (vocals), Carlos O'Connell (guitar), Conor Curley (guitar), Conor Deegan III (bass), and Tom Coll (drums) originally met in Dublin, where they were attending college at the British and Irish Modern Music Institute. Bonding over a shared love of poetry, they soon began writing their own verses and self-releasing singles.

The band initially called themselves "The Fontaines" after a character in The Godfather (Johnny Fontane, the godson of Vito Corleone), but they added the "D.C." (for Dublin City) after learning that a band in Los Angeles were also called The Fontaines.

In May 2017, D.C. Fontaines released the single "Liberty Belle," a reference to Dublin's Liberties neighborhood. That was followed by "Hurricane Laughter"/"Winter In the Sun." The next year, D.C. Fontaines released "Chequeless Reckless"/"Boys In The Better Land" and "Too Real." Their star rose in the U.S. when Seattle radio station KEXP invited them to play an in-studio set, and D.C. Fontaines were then signed to prominent indie label Partisan Records.

In 2019, D.C. Fontaines released their debut album, Dogrel. The name is a reference to "Doggerel," another name for working-class Irish poetry, or "poetry of the people." That same year, D.C. Fontaines toured extensively, stopping in 50 cities throughout Ireland, Europe, and North America. They also made their late-night TV debut on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon," performing "Boys in the Better Land."

In 2020, D.C. Fontaines released their sophomore album, A Hero's Death, which earned them a nomination for Best Rock Album at the 2021 Grammy Awards. They also returned to "The Tonight Show," where they performed their album's title track.

In early 2022, D.C. Fontaines announced their third studio album, Skinty Fia, and shared a lead single, "Jackie Down the Line." Now that they are more established, D.C. Fontaines have been widely recognized as the ringleaders in a wave of '20s post-punk revivalist acts from the UK, including IDLES, Dry Cleaning, Shame, and more.

This album contains no booklet.
