Buck Meek presents new single "Paradise"
Texas-bred singer/songwriter and Big Thief guitarist Buck Meek presents his new single and lyric video for "Paradise", which is from his first album for 4AD.
"Paradise" follows the album's title track, which was released earlier this year.
Of the single Meek says, “Sometimes when you half-hear something spoken, something unspoken inside the words is revealed. Your mind fills in the blank, finishes the sentence, infers deep meaning - though you still can't fully explain it. Jolie Holland sent me some of the lyrics for this song, about feeling in awe of the vastness within a loved one, and I wrote it thinking about how love often feels too big to comprehend, like death, or life after death, or space.”
Haunted Mountain was recorded live to two inch tape, with Meek’s band – Adam Brisbin (guitar), Austin Vaughn (drums), Mat Davidson (pedal steel, bass), Ken Woodward (bass), and Meek’s brother Dylan Meek (piano, synths) – playing together in one big room with no headphones. The album is his third solo outing.
"Paradise" is out now. Haunted Mountain is set for release on 25 August via 4AD, and is available to pre-order.
