Along the way, it explores pain, farewells, new beginnings, and\nultimately, acceptance.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpanning just 30 minutes, the album exudes a remarkable clarity - not just in its\nbrevity, but in its emotional depth. Songs like Lighthouse, Bad Days, and Dive In\nfeature refrains destined for large venues, their powerful melodies soaring on\npop-infused harmonies before retreating into the intimacy of the verses.\n\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTara produced most of \u003ci\u003eEkko\u003c\/i\u003e herself, intentionally keeping the musical palette\nsimple. She collaborated with Grammy winning producer and engineer Simon\nGoff (The Joker, Chernobyl) to create a precise, stripped-back soundscape built\naround voice, piano, guitar, strings, Mellotron, and occasional analog\nsynthesizers. A personal touch lies in the string arrangements: before\ntranscribing the cello parts, Tara recorded vocal demos for each line herself.\n\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAncient myths weave seamlessly through \u003ci\u003eEkko\u003c\/i\u003e, intertwining with Tara’s\nintrospective themes. The figures of Narcissus and the nymph Echo embody two\nextremes - self-obsession on one side and complete conformity on the other.\nThese ideas resonate deeply in today’s digital landscape, where identity often\nshifts between authenticity and the pressure to assimilate.\n\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith Ekko, Tara reveals how repetition—like Echo’s curse—is not merely mimicry\nbut can be transformative: a reinterpretation of tradition and identity. Here, Echo\nbecomes more than a passive voice; she is a medium for reshaping and\nreclaiming meaning.\n\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn the album cover, Tara wears shell headphones, a poignant symbol of listening\ninward. The sound we hear is not distant or external—it’s the pulse of our own\nblood coursing through our veins.\n\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe untainted dreams of what it means to be a human and an artist have faded—\nperhaps they were never entirely her own, but shaped by others. Now, the waves\ncrash against the reflection, and the sea roars. It’s a sound that resonates through\nall of us—a deep echo of our own being.\n\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fat Cat","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":51136373326155,"sku":"2240431","price":11.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"LP - Clear","offer_id":51245611385163,"sku":"2240432","price":23.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/Tara_ND_-_Packshot_c2d75dcc_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1737477871"}],"url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/de\/collections\/tara-nome-doyle.oembed","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
