Ekko Park's new EP Let's Talk About Last Night... The End of the World - released on May 10th, 2024 is the first release since their UnMute EP in 2022. The new record stays true to the pop-punk-rock fashion that we’ve been so familiar with over last 10 years. The record bursts into life with Outrun The Rain, singer Joe Walsh sets the tone with a passionate cry of “let's talk about last night, the end of the world”. The EP continues on the upbeat pop-rock trajectory with tracks Today's My Day and Phase Her.

Ekko Park have been writing and recording this record in amongst huge NZ tours as drummer Nick Douch states, "Since the UnMute EP we have toured throughout NZ, including opening for The Charlatans (UK) and You Am I (Australia). We also wrote and recorded Let's Talk About Last Night... The End of the World with the first 2 tracks Outrun The Rain and Today's My Day both receiving massive airplay on radio nationwide.”

The final track The North brings the EP to a poignant end, with an anthemic ballad, a self-reflecting narrative of times gone by, drawing similarities to early Snow Patrol, Feeder or Bush. "Joe sent us a voice memo of The North while writing for the new EP. He wasn’t sure it was an Ekko Park song, he just wanted to share it with us. I instantly knew that this was a song to record and release as Ekko Park, having been close to Joe for over 10 years I knew where the topics in the song had come from, and it was an important song for him to write. The idea behind recording it was for Joe to record it live and if there was any space to add some colour from the band we would…but it didn’t need it, he captured the song perfectly. The final recording is the second take of 2.” States Douch.

Ekko park has had great success overseas, been played on major radio over the last 12 years especially in The UK, Ireland and Europe. They still have so much more they want to achieve as a band and hopefully we’ll be hearing a full-length record in the near future. Nick states "We have grown up together through music and to still be in bands, playing shows together and being part of a community is something to be extremely grateful for. There are always changes happening in music but what is exciting me right now in New Zealand is how many young bands are out there creating their own path and their own scene. To see this still happening across all genres gives me a lot of confidence in the future of kiwi music"
