The beauty and bite of NewDad’s debut album ‘Madra’ made the Galway band one of the biggest new hopes around. Bringing a youthful zest to storied influences such as Slowdive, The Cure and Cocteau Twins, their amalgamation of classic ‘90s aesthetics attracted a diverse and still-growing audience.

And NewDad’s future is now just a step away as they prepare to release their new EP ‘Safe’. It’s precisely what fans would want from their band: their core shoegaze/dream-pop sound elevated with a swaggering new self-confidence, a tight, masterly control of hooks, and broader touch points such as Pavement and Sonic Youth. In short: their ethereal elements feel more alluring than ever; the visceral moments are more selective and dynamic but hit just as hard; and their songs are simply a leap in sophistication beyond ‘Madra’. Pre-order/ Pre-save HERE

After a whirlwind year of unforgettable performances and milestones, NewDad is ready to take on their next big adventure. From Koko, and Glastonbury to Radio 1’s Big Weekend, and even as far as Japan and China, the band’s dynamic live shows have left audiences mesmerized. On the eve of their new EP, NewDad is also excited to announce a special live show at The Dome, London, on May 14th. This event promises to be another unforgettable night for fans and newcomers alike. Tickets are on sale 5:00pm April 16th, but are limited so don’t miss out! Sign up for exclusive access to tickets HERE.
