No Windows – Easter Island

Edinburgh duo No Windows shared a new single titled “Easter Island”. The track follows the recent announcement of their much-anticipated new EP The Great Traitor. The new release follows their 2024 EP Point Nemo.

The new single “Easter Island” marks the first track the band have written to be sung as a duet from start to finish, and is emblematic of how much Morgan and Verity’s creative relationship has grown over the past years. The emotive and intricate acoustic EP closer sees mellifluous fingerpicking weave around the duos simultaneous vocal lines, with subtle piano, Vibraphone, and tape loop ambience floating in and out of the track.

Speaking on the track, Morgan says, “Easter Island may be the most collaborative song we’ve written, there was almost no separation between both of our roles in that moment. Usually, our instinct after finishing on a song’s spine is to think about arrangement, instrumentation, and production. The works. However, after finishing up Easter Island, we felt perfectly content with where it was. The song remains almost the same as when we played it in my room for the first time.”
