NewDad release music video for "How"

Irish alternative rock group NewDad have unveiled the music video for their debut single “How” today.

The visual, which can be seen below, was filmed in the band’s hometown of Galway. The band re-recorded their 2020 debut single with producer Chris W Ryan. NewDad said this about reworking the track:

“This was the first song we ever released. We were so happy at the time, but it was all recorded at home, so we wanted to revisit and give it new life. When we recorded it originally, we had limited gear and knowhow, but all we wanted to do was get our music out to the world! After we had everything recorded, that’s when we found Chris W Ryan. We worked with him on this track, and every track up until our latest EP. He was able to give it the professional touch the track needed. In our last recording session with him, we wanted to go back to it and give it a few extra touches that were lacking in the original recording. It's now much closer to our live sound. The song is about not being able to let go of someone you have feelings for even if you know it doesn’t work. It brings you through the ups and downs of these emotions with its deep contemplative verses and its big heart throbbing choruses.”

NewDad are currently working on their new EP, which is slated to drop before the year is over. The band will embark on a sold-out headlining tour through Ireland and the U.K. this fall with a special performance at Pitchfork Festival Paris.
