Tara Nome Doyle - Ekko (2025)

With ‘Ekko’, Berlin-based Irish-Norwegian artist Tara Nome Doyle unveils her third album - a journey that ventures outward into the unknown and inward to the depths of the self. Along the way, it explores pain, farewells, new beginnings, and ultimately, acceptance. The album exudes a remarkable clarity in its emotional depth. Songs like ‘Lighthouse’, ‘Bad Days’, and ‘Dive In’ feature refrains destined for large venues, their powerful melodies soaring on pop-infused harmonies before retreating into the intimacy of the verses. Tara produced most of ‘Ekko’ herself, intentionally keeping the musical palette simple. She collaborated with GRAMMY winning producer and engineer Simon Goff (‘The Joker’, ‘Chernobyl’) to create a precise, stripped-back soundscape built around voice, piano, guitar, strings, Mellotron and occasional analogue synthesizers. CD in jewelcase plus printed booklet with lyrics.
