The band has announced the release of their highly anticipated eighth studio album, Like Love, set to drop on Friday 4 April. Alongside the album announcement, they’ve unveiled their latest single, ‘Please Don’t Move To Melbourne,’ and revealed plans for a massive Australian and New Zealand tour this coming May and June.
Like Love takes its name from the album’s title track, which has already struck a chord with fans across the country. Voted #43 in Triple J’s Hottest 100 of 2024, the song is a testament to Ball Park Music’s ability to create music that resonates deeply with listeners. The title track marks a more introspective, heartfelt sound for the band, a shift that’s quickly won the hearts of fans.
But while ‘Like Love’ introduces a softer tone, Ball Park Music is turning up the energy with their second single, ‘Please Don’t Move To Melbourne.’ The track bursts with a bright, upbeat melody and an undeniably catchy chorus, one that will be stuck in your head for days. As with so much of their music, the song balances infectious energy with vulnerable lyrics, showcasing the band’s signature style of pairing emotional depth with unforgettable hooks.
With Like Love dropping soon, Ball Park Music is set to further cement their place as one of Australia’s most influential musical acts of the last decade. The upcoming album will feature both ‘Like Love’ and ‘Please Don’t Move To Melbourne,’ adding to the band’s already impressive catalogue of songs that we know and love.
To celebrate the release, the band will embark on a massive tour across Australia and New Zealand, bringing their new songs—and a selection of fan favourites—to the stage. They’ll be joined by fellow Brisbane act Bean Magazine as special guests, making this tour an unmissable event for those looking for some good ol’ Aussie talent.
With their new album on the horizon and a tour that promises to be full of energy, heart, and nostalgia, Ball Park Music is poised to continue their reign as one of the country’s most beloved bands.
Stay tuned for more updates as they prepare to take Like Love to the stage in May and June!
