Majordomo is the upcoming second studio album by Australian indie pop band Teenage Dads, set to release on 23 August 2024 via Chugg. It is a follow-up to their ARIA Award-winning 2023 EP Midnight Driving, and is currently preceded by five singles including "Speedracer" and "I Like It". The band will embark on an Australian tour from August to support the album.
Upon the album's announcement, Teenage Dads wrote in a press release that, aligning with the definition of a majordomo– one who makes arrangements and takes control for another– the band wanted to "explore themes of control: how sometimes you might be the majordomo seizing the day, and others you are falling from the sky in a box, unable to do anything."[1]
On 1 June 2023, Teenage Dads released the lead single "Speedracer", alongside the announcement of a 30-date tour across Australia. According to Rolling Stone Australia, the song contains a more composed array of "funky basslines and vibrant synths," in contrast to their singles from the year prior, like "Teddy".[2] The album's second single, "I Like It", followed in August, featuring "catchy riffs and jangly guitars".[3] In November, "Tale of a Man" was issued with a fairy tale-style music video.[4] Two more singles, "Weaponz" and "Boyfriend", were released before the album's title, artwork and release date was announced on 10 July 2024.[5] Supporting the album, Teenage Dads will embark on the Majordomo Australia and New Zealand tour from August.[6]
