This will be the first song on our first album in 4 years. It almost didn’t happen. Before the pandemic we had gotten so exhausted and jaded for a moment it felt like we might walk away. Then the world ended. And for the first time in 8 years we were apart. In those lost months we remembered how much Marian Hill means to us, and means to all of you. How the connection we find through our music is literally magic. And we knew we needed to finish this record. Marian Hill gave both of us the lives we'd always dreamed of, and kept us going during the worst year of our lives. When Samantha found herself turning 30 in her childhood bedroom and Jeremy suffered an onset of chronic pain in both of his wrists, the music we made gave us moments of joy to hold onto in a world full of uncertainty. For a few moments each day, we could get lost in a song, and pretend we were playing it for you. This song in some ways feels like a message from that time to eternity. When we started thinking of the lyrics we were really thinking about us as a band, us as songwriters...will we be remembered? Do people still care? Will anyone care in 5 years, 10 years, 20 years? It’s also about wondering if an ex will remember you once the relationship is far in the rearview. And about if any of our art will last as climate change escalates to world-ending levels. When you listen to this song, you are with us, wherever you are. We invite you to share your own memories in the comments - together we’ll build a wall of memories forever immortalized through music. someday when everything’s underwater and all our memories are forgotten there’s nothing as far as you can see i wonder in all that… is there a trace of me? will you remember me?
