Interview by Charlotte Poynton
Ball Park Music are preparing to release their upcoming album, Like Love, on Friday 4 April. Named after the title track, their 8th studio album will contain both singles ‘Like Love’ and ‘Please Don’t Move To Melbourne’ and will further prove the band as one of Australia’s most influential acts of the last decade, expanding on their incredible catalogue of songs that have sound-tracked so many lives.
To celebrate the release of the album, Ball Park Music will play these new songs and a plethora of their much-loved hits in a huge national Australian and NZ tour this coming May and June, supported by fellow Brissie band Bean Magazine.
We thought it high time we caught up with someone from Ball Park Music about the album and the tour. We had Charlotte catch up with Sam Cromack about the new album, its inspo and the upcoming tour.
