The collaboration between Fontaines D.C. and Rosalía has just landed. On Friday, Fontaines will release their eagerly awaited new album Dopamine Chamber, and it includes the first-ever guest appearance on one of their tracks. The pairing of the Dublin outfit with Rosalía, and her choice to collaborate with them, stands as one of those fortunate moments when two notable acts find common ground. The track is available now, arriving a mere few days after Rosalía’s SNL performance.
So far, Fontaines D.C. have issued the Dopamine Chamber singles “Marianne” and “Tongue,” and they’ve debuted a handful of additional new songs in concert. When the band unveiled the LP’s tracklist last month, the Rosalía collaboration immediately stood out. The track “Where Is Gone?” with Rosalía leaked over the weekend, surfacing on white-label 7″ singles at listening events for the album.
As it turns out, “Where Is Gone?” is a big, dramatic, string-laden ballad with real Bond-theme vibes. Grian Chatten and Rosalía’s voices contrast sharply with one another, and it’s interesting to hear them come together over echoing guitars and sweeping orchestral crescendos that carry at least some echo of the texture heard on Rosalía’s stunning 2025 album LUX. Both of them, it’s probably worth noting, sing in English.
There’s a long history of anti-colonialist solidarity between Ireland and Catalonia. Right now, that seems to take the form of Dublin rock bands loving Rosalía. U2 have a song about her on their upcoming album Carnaval de Luz, and she seems tickled about it. In a press release, Fontaines member Carlos O’Connell says:
I’ve been a fan of Rosalía since her debut album, which was absolutely beautiful. What really excited me was how she was keeping a Spanish tradition of music alive, which in a spiritual way felt akin to what we’ve tried to do with Irish music. For someone with roots in both countries, it’s been beautiful to see. She’s an artist who’s blown me away at every stage since.
Fontaines D.C. also recently announced a huge 2027 North American tour, with Westside Cowboy opening one leg and Iceage opening the other. Below, check out “Where Is Gone?” and their tour dates.
