Life is all about balance, and for every dream experience that shakes up your world, there’s often a sacrifice to be made. NewDad have had plenty of the former since releasing their debut single ‘How’ in 2020 and steadily building an ever-burgeoning fanbase around their spellbinding dream-pop. They’ve released a critically-acclaimed debut album in 2024’s ‘Madra’, gained a fan in their ultimate hero, The Cure’s Robert Smith, and toured parts of the world they never thought they’d get to visit.
‘Altar’ – recorded in January 2025 between studios in Ipswich and London – isn’t simply an album about where one comes from and wants to get back to, though. It also charts Dawson’s journey as a musician, coming to terms with the realities of her hobby and passion becoming a profession, and navigating the industry as a woman.
