Written, produced and recorded in his bedroom following a period of creative stagnation, ‘Fickle’ reflects on a turbulent relationship through the lens of acceptance – even though a relationship was fleeting and imperfect, you wouldn't change it. “Fickle felt like a reward from the universe. I'd been stuck, unable to write anything that truly inspired me or resonated with me.

So I took time oﬀ being creative and did a lot of inner healing, eventually coming to a sense of acceptance about a lot of things in terms of past turbulent relationships, missing my childhood, identity crises. Then one day I stumbled into making this song. I was watching YouTube with my guitar plugged into the amp, just playing around with chords, until I landed on something that felt really good.

”To celebrate the release of ‘Fickle’, Newport will be heading on an Australian headline tour in October. Kicking off at the Bergy Bandroom in Melbourne on Friday, 2 October, Newport will then head to Port Macquarie for a set at Hideaway Festival on Saturday, 3 October, followedby The Brightside Indoors on Sunday 4 October. The following week he will play a hometown show in Perth at the Indian Ocean Hotel on Friday 9 October, followed by a Bunbury show on Saturday, 10 October at Froth Craft.

With now over 11 million streams to his name, Newport has established himself as one of Australia’s most exciting emerging stars. This year Newport was selected as one of triple J Unearthed’s Forecast Artists of 2026, as well as gracing the covers of Spotify’s Fresh Finds and *hits different*, and YouTube Music’s Alt-Pop Now.
