Overview
- Fontaines D.C. released “Where Is Gone?” on Monday, a James Ford‑produced duet with ROSALÍA that serves as the third preview single from Dopamine Chamber, which is due Oct. 16 on XL Recordings.
- Guitarist Carlos O’Connell said he has long admired ROSALÍA and framed the pairing as a meeting of Spanish and Irish musical traditions because both artists draw on national song customs.
- Critics and outlets describe the track as a dramatic, string‑led ballad with sweeping orchestral crescendos and contrasting vocals from Grian Chatten and ROSALÍA that push Fontaines D.C. toward a more expansive sound.
- Two days after the album arrives the band will play an intimate benefit at London’s Roundhouse for suicide‑prevention charity CALM, and they have announced expanded arena and stadium dates across the U.K., Europe and into 2027.
- ROSALÍA is promoting her own album Lux with recent high‑profile appearances including Saturday Night Live, and the collaboration could broaden Fontaines D.C.’s international reach by introducing their music to her global audience.
