										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em><a href="https://highclouds.org/tag/carla-dal-forno/">Carla dal Forno</a></em> is back. At the end of this month, the Australian artist and NTS radio host will release her new album <em>Confession</em>, her first full-length since <em>Come Around</em>, which came out in 2022. The new record was introduced by the understated and instantly captivating single <a href="https://highclouds.org/carla-dal-forno-announces-new-album-confession-going-out-video/">&#8220;Going Out&#8221;</a>, already featured in our <a href="https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4ITy6mJOxFbYPvKuD2wwjb?si=6b05eb745abd4016" target="_blank">Best Songs of 2026 playlist</a>. Described as “an album of quiet upheaval”, Confession explores closeness that arrives unexpectedly, where stability and desire gently collide.</p>
<p>The second taster, &#8220;Under The Covers&#8221;, leans into something softer and more grounded. Built on a sparse, almost hypnotic arrangement, the dreamy track captures the quiet rhythm of a relationship that settles into everyday life. It’s less about big moments and more about the small and familiar ones that slowly start to mean everything. You can hear that feeling throughout, especially in lines like “Under the covers we’re alone sometimes and you’re talking to me about your day”, where nothing much happens, yet everything is there. As <em>Carla</em> puts it, it’s a kind of love “that builds slowly in shared routines, small gestures, and the comfort of being understood without needing to explain yourself&#8230; where intimacy shows up in ordinary moments, and understanding becomes its own kind of language between two people.” Watch the accompanying visualizer, created using paintings by <em>Ruth O&#8217;Leary</em>, below.</p>

					<description><![CDATA["Going Out" is taken from Carla Dal Forno's fourth album, Confession, out via Kallista Records on April 24.]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em><a href="https://highclouds.org/tag/carla-dal-forno/">Carla Dal Forno</a></em> has announced her fourth album, <em>Confession</em>, set for release on April 24 on her own label <em>Kallista Records</em>. The Australian singer, songwriter and multi instrumentalist &#8211; <a href="https://www.nts.live/shows/carla-dal-forno" target="_blank">and <em>NTS radio</em> host</a> &#8211; describes it as “an album of quiet upheaval”. At its core, the 12 track record record reflects on closeness that arrives late and unexpectedly, on stability brushing up against desire, and on the moment when friendship can suddenly tilt into something unsettling . “At the heart of the album is a friendship that became emotionally charged in an unexpected way,” <em>dal Forno</em> stated. “That shift brought daydreaming, jealousy, tenderness, confusion, self-awareness — and eventually acceptance.” Before adding: “This wasn’t the album I intended to make. I originally wanted something veiled and abstract, but I realised I couldn’t hide behind abstraction — the songs only worked when I leaned into emotional truth.”</p>
<p>Known for her atmospheric and emotionally ambiguous songwriting, <em>Carla Dal Forno</em> builds her songs from sparse synth textures, pulsing drum machines, stripped back guitar lines and deep bass undertows, with her cool, distant voice floating above it all. <em>Confession</em> follows <a href="https://highclouds.org/carla-dal-forno-come-around-video/" target="_blank">her 2022 album <em>Come Around</em></a>, and comes after the 2025 release of &#8220;Veselka City Lights&#8221; on <em>A Colourful Storm</em>’s compilation <a href="https://acolourfulstorm.bandcamp.com/album/going-back-to-sleep" target="_blank"><em>Going Back to Sleep&#8230;</em></a> Alongside the announcement, she has also shared the first single, &#8220;Going Out&#8221;, with a video directed by <em>Hanna Chetwin</em>.</p>
