Maren Morris has unveiled the second single from her forthcoming album Humble Quest in the form of “Background Music,” the follow-up to the previously released “Circles Around This Town.” Produced by award-winning soundsmith Greg Kurstin (Adele, CHVRCHES, Foo Fighters), Humble Quest is Morris’ third major-label studio affair and sixth overall.
“I wrote ‘Background Music’ about the beauty of the temporary, which is inevitably all things,” Morris reflects in an official statement. “The romanticism of eternity sounds nice, but I like to think I savor things better when I know I’m not entitled to it in perpetuity. It’s a love song that addresses mortality but it’s also promising someone that even when we aren’t cool anymore, I want to grow old with them and laugh about the times we thought we were.”
Watch the official video for both “Background Music” and “Circles Around This Town” below, and mark your calendars for Humble Quest’s pending arrival on March 25th
