Ekko Park releases their new single My Crime today, Tuesday, September 24th 2013.

This is the third single from the 4 piece rock band this year and follows on from the successful releases of Simpatico and Becoming The Enemy, which charted #1 and #2 respectively on the NZ iTunes Rock Chart.

Ekko Park is an Auckland 4 piece rock band with great pedigree – consisting of Joe Walsh (Lead Vocals/Guitar), Joel Halstead (Lead Guitar/Vocals), Nick Douch (Drums) and Callum Tong (Bass).

Best described as "a ship captained by an Irishman and crewed by 3 kiwis"- singer Joe, a born and bred Belfast boy, travelled the globe playing music before settling in NZ where he teamed up with 3 kiwi fellas who had been playing around the local scene in some well known NZ bands. A collaboration of diverse backgrounds forming a unique and explosive offering in the NZ music landscape.

My Crime has been tipped as the strongest track from the band so far and has the backing of NZ On Air funding. Joe Walsh comments "This song is basically an apology to my band mates. It tells the story of a night out in Ponsonby that didn’t go so well for me but went very well for the bar owner who was selling me drinks!! It’s really about holding your hands up and saying ‘Yeah, this was my crime.’"

Ekko Park will release their debut album in November – further details will be announced soon. Stay tuned!

My Crime is available now on iTunes.
