Koe Wetzel Is Singing With Ella Langley and Leaving His Hard-Partying Days Behind

This is their last chance to pick apart The Night Champion together, and they’ve both been fretting it.

Wetzel — and Simon — took aim at that feeling in making The Night Champion and its deluxe cohort. “I fucked with Eve 6 so heavily in middle school, and I told the guys I wanted to write a rock song,” Wetzel says. “Ronnie Ray” was part of a five-song drop of tunes from the deluxe release of The Night Champion in mid-July.
