Skinty Fia is an Irish phrase which translates to English as “the damnation of the deer” and the album’s cover art features a deer, plucked from its natural habitat and deposited in the hallway of a home, illuminated by an artificial red glow. The Irish giant deer is an extinct species and the band’s thoughts on Irish identity are central to Skinty Fia. While Dogrel was littered with snapshots of the Dublin characters -  like the cabbie in “Boys In The Better Land” - and A Hero’s Death documented the dislocation and disconnection the band felt as they traveled the globe on tour, on Skinty Fia Fontaines D.C. are addressing their Irishness from afar as they recreate new lives for themselves elsewhere. For a band whose hometown courses through their veins -  “D.C.” stands for “Dublin City” - the album finds them trying to resolve the need to broaden their horizons with the affection they still feel for the land and people they’ve left behind.

In the world of French electronic music, Irène Drésel is an anomaly: a polymorphic artist whose techno breaks from the norm with sophistication. Her incisive rhythms and incorporation of distinct sounds – including bells – produce a hypnotic audioscape attached to a distinct, dynamic visual universe. On stage with Sizo Del Givry, her percussionist partner, Irène's live shows are like a pagan ceremony in a rose-tinted secret garden.

 

Her first two albums, Hyper Cristal (2019) and Kinky Dogma (2021), were beloved by critics and audiences alike. A sold-out show at The Olympia in Paris, followed by her performance at the Stade de France at the closing ceremony of the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games, launched the illustrious tour for Rose Fluo (2024), her third album, which translates a color into a state of mind. The Rose Fluo tour will culminate in a concert at the Zénith in November 2025.

 

Endlessly versatile, she is also a film composer, winning the César for Best Original Music for Eric Gravel's critically acclaimed film, A Plein Temps (2021).
