정규앨범 1집 [Unforeseen]을 내고 한동안 어떤 곡을 쓰고싶은지, 어떤 소리를 내고 싶은지 많이 고민을 했다. 그 고민을 하다가 의도치않게 슬럼프가 오기도 했지만 이 EP앨범은 그 슬럼프를 잘 넘기고 만들어진 결과물인 것 같기도 하다. 또 다른 시작을 알려주는 앨범처럼 다가오기도 한다.

이번 EP앨범에 담긴 곡들은 이전에 발매된 곡들과는 조금 다른 부분이 있다. 내 곡을 듣고 사람들은 안개에 덮인 것 같다는 표현을 자주 했는데 개인적으로 나는 이번 곡들은 그 안개가 모두 걷힌 것 같다는 느낌을 받았다. 

5곡 모두 포크 록을 기반으로 한 밴드 사운드가 주가 되며 한층 더 밝아지고 선명해졌다. 늘 서성거리고 제자리에 있는 듯한 느낌을 주었던 이전 발매작 가사와 달리 이번 발매작에서는 앞으로 나아가려고 하며 희망을 이야기한다

After releasing my first full-length album [Unforeseen], I spent some time thinking about what kind of songs I wanted to write and what sound I wanted to make. While mulling this over, I found myself in a bit of an unintended slump, I would say now that this EP album seems to be the result of overcoming that slump. I think that [Kookaburra] is an EP that marks a new beginning for me as well.

The songs in this EP album are slightly different from those that I had released before. Many people that listened to my previous releases used the expression of being “covered by a fog”, personally I feel that these new songs mark the lifting of that fog. 

All five songs are rooted in a folk-rock sound and with the full band they come across much brighter and clearer than my other works. Unlike the lyrics of the previous release, which always seemed to be loitering in the present, the lyrics on Kookaburra try to look more to the future and focus on the feeling of hope.
