About...
Palmmeadow are a Dream-Pop band from Pensacola, Florida. Blending the traditional combination of drums, lead guitar, rhythm guitar, and vocals with synthesised strings and other synth elements, the band creates an enjoyable sonic aesthetic. ‘Trees’ talks about losing your way and feeling out of touch with the world
Lyrics...
This track is about the challenges of everyday life and struggling to get it right when you’ve lost your way. The lyrics talk about mundane tasks like brushing your teeth, and feelings of inadequacy that are universal, and make for a melancholy and poignant track
Production...
The combination of instruments works really well, as palmmeadow have combined traditional indie band instrumentation with synthesised strings that add a real element of emotion and calm that is often missing from indie boy band tracks
Summary...
Trees is a well-written song that should make it onto any sad or just chilled indie playlist. The track is tuneful, the vocals are well-sung, and it’s an enjoyable listen
