NYC shoegaze / psych/ alt band Acid Dad have premiered their dreamy new single “Real Good Dream“ and its accompanying music video.
The song, their first in almost two years, is out now via Greenway Records. Get it here.
UPDATE 3/24/2025: “Real Good Dream” is out new Single of the Week!
Building on their previous single, “1993,” their new offering dives deeper into the dream-pop soundscape. Blending classic ’80s synths with shoegaze-inspired guitar, Acid Dad has crafted a world you won’t want to wake up from. While it may seem like a new direction at first, the psychedelic core of Acid Dad remains as strong as ever.

About Acid Dad
Acid Dad is Vaughn Hunt (guitars and vocals), Sean Fahey (guitars and vocals) and Trevor Mustoe (drums). They are a twangy psychedelic garage band whose hazy lo-fi tunes are blanketed with a layer of 60’s fuzz. The band speak of the multiple personalities hidden within their sound, claiming to have “broken down song structures countless times in order to achieve a smooth flow between radically different sections of the songs.” The trio makes the kind of music that urges you to dance as much as it urges you to slam dance, to pound your fist as readily as it requests you solemnly sway.
