Fontaines D.C.’s Grian Chatten cries ‘witch hunt’ as Kneecap charge stirs drama

Fontaines D.C.'s Grian Chatten brands the terror charge against Kneecap’s Mo Chara a “witch hunt,” laced with political undertones and framed, he claims, for spectacle. He aligns with Kneecap without hesitation, doubling down on what he sees as readable motives for the legal pursuit.

His band’s support for Palestine continues unabated—football kits, festival banners, and donations all weighed in—paired with a chorus of artists resisting political pressure to silence Kneecap before Glastonbury.
