Greg MacKinnon

Greg MacKinnon showed up to The Rock Cave exactly once, dropped some serious knowledge about Fontaines D.C., and promptly disappeared back into whatever Dublin-adjacent corner of the internet he crawled out of. A man of mystery, a man of taste, and apparently a man with strong opinions about post-punk poetry set to aggressive guitars. Cave Nation, respect it.

Greg's episode covering the brooding Irish lads of Fontaines D.C. tells you everything you need to know about him: he's the guy at the party who's heard the album before it came out, knows what "dogrel" means, and will absolutely make you feel slightly undereducated about contemporary rock music in the most charming way possible.

One episode. One band. Zero compromises. Greg MacKinnon came, he conquered, he left Mark holding the mic. Whether he'll ever grace the Cave again remains one of rock's great unanswered questions, right up there with whether Fontaines D.C. are secretly the best band on the planet. Spoiler: probably yes.
