Amidst all the COVID-19 news, don't forget acts are still releasing new music, and if you want to get a little bit funky in self isolation, Ball Park Music are here to help as today they've released their new song Spark Up.
It comes just days after their track It's Nice To Be Alive landed at #17 on triple j's Hottest 100 songs of the decade.
The Brisbane's band frontman Sam Cromack has also penned a note on how the song came into existence, which drops a clue that a new album is on the horizon too.
“I saw a show one night in Brisbane with my friend. Really wild gig, the crowd were turning into animals (in a nice way). I left feeling energised and began to sing the chorus to myself as I walked through the night air. Didn’t think much of it. It just felt like one of the many dumb things I sing to myself as I’m passing time or thinking. And it stayed this way for months," he begins.
"I struggled to complete the story for a long time. One day, in a particularly foul mood, I finally looked the meaning of the song square in the eye and finished it off. I guess it’s kind of a protest song. It’s a song for those who are writhing in their skin. It’s a song for those who are dreaming of some other place. I don’t want to ruin the fun with an unnecessarily detailed explanation. I think the song speaks for itself.
"We recorded this song on 18th October 2019. It was the first recording session for our new album, Mostly Sunny.”
