Maren Morris releases new single ‘Background Music’

Grammy-winning superstar Maren Morris shares a new song, “Background Music,” today—listen here.

Maren says: “I wrote ‘Background Music’ about the beauty of the temporary, which is inevitably all things. 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.”

Additionally, Maren is nominated for Female Artist of the Year at the 57^th Academy of Country Music Awards.
