Maren Morris Releases New Song ‘Background Music’

    Maren Morris has released her new song ‘Background Music’, which is set to appear on her forthcoming album Humble Quest. The track was co-written by Laura Veitz and Jimmy Robbins. Check out its accompanying video below.

    “I wrote ‘Background Music’ about the beauty of the temporary, which is inevitably all things,” Morris remarked in a 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.”

    Humble Quest, the follow-up 2019’s Girl, is set for release on March 25 via Columbia Nashville. Maren Morris previously shared the single ‘Circles Around This Town’.
