Australian indie-pop group Teenage Dads today announce their upcoming EP My Memento, due Aug 20 via Chugg Music. With the news they share their heartfelt new single ‘Stay Between Us’. LISTEN HERE + PRE-SAVE EP HERE.
An extension of their 2024 sophomore album Majordomo, My Memento is infectious and creatively bold. Known for their ability to fuse a multitude of soundscapes that range from punchy alt-rock anthems to indie-pop, the EP marks the next step of Teenage Dads’ refined sonic evolution.
“‘My Memento’ was born out of a song we always believed in as well as the desire of giving back to our fans,” Teenage Dads share. “While 3/4 songs were ‘hidden’ on MAJORDOMO they all come from the same time and carry great memories. So, to us the EP feels like a souvenir of our album. We intended to keep the songs hidden on the vinyl but that changed when we saw our fans enjoying them, so much that people had made digital rips and self-appointed songs titles, 2 of which we’ve used for the official release.”
With today’s announcement Teenage Dads reveal the EP’s first single, the confessional ‘Stay Between Us’. Self-produced and recorded between their continuous touring schedule, the track shows a confident creative partnership that leans into their signature conversational approach. Inviting listeners into their fully-formed world, ‘Stay Between Us’ is like a memory suspended in time, with frontman Jordan Finlay’s raw vocal delivery capturing the ache of unsaid goodbyes.
Finding another gear on their songwriting, My Memento follows Teenage Dads’ 2024 album Majordomo, a record which landed triple j Feature Album, debuted at #1 in the ARIA Aus Album Charts, #2 in the ARIA Album Charts and #6 in the Vinyl Charts, collected radio support across the board at iHeartRadio, fbi radio, 2SER, 4ZZZ and SYN FM alongside widespread acclaim from Rolling Stone, 10 Magazine, Billboard, NME, Frankie Magazine and more, with To Be Magazine praising their “sonic library that is at once unique, sentimental and quotidian”.
Landing the 2023 ARIA Breakthrough Artist, Teenage Dads have continued to garner audiences through extensive touring across Australia, the UK, EU, North America and Canada. With festival appearances at SXSW Sydney, Laneway Festival, The Great Escape (UK), Splendour in the Grass, Yours & Owls to sharing stages with Dayglow, Spacey Jane, Lime Cordiale, The Brook & The Bluff and more, their ability to translate live recordings into a live setting shows no sign of slowing down.
This September, Teenage Dads will perform across the UK and EU to celebrate the release of My Memento and Majordomo, and have also announced that they will be joining cult indie-rock pillars Franz Ferdinand on their upcoming Australian tour this November – for all upcoming tour routing info + tickets see HERE.
