about
My best friend and I grew up doing everything together - sports, video games, music, we worked together for years, and we biked all over the city for hours on end. One of our favorite spots was a nearby woods area. Even though we were right in the middle of the Twin Cities, this spot felt like it was so far from civilization - there were trees, swamps, wildlife, and dirt paths.
Technology is great, and I love being busy and living in a big city, but there’s just nothing like the calm, quiet escape of nature. I also think ambient music and nature go hand in hand - they are family.
I titled this song “Imagination” after a blog post I wrote nearly a decade ago, with the same title. Thinking of those times biking in the woods, exploring, free of worry and responsibility, I wrote out my thoughts on how we grow up with these cultural expectations to simply survive, go through the motions, and to just pay the bills. So often we’re pressured to leave behind that imagination we have as children, to shed the wonder.
Music is my humble attempt to go against the grain as much as I can, and to feed that imagination well into adulthood.
Slow Meadow's music feels like it captures the essence of a soul. Since the first time I came across the self titled debut some time in 2016, I've been repeatedly amazed at how many spacious layers of beauty and pain can be woven into a single song. Love this release and am happy to support such inspiring composition. 𝔅𝔩𝔦𝔰𝔰 ॐ 𝔄𝔟𝔶𝔰𝔰
When I listen to this album, it generates a serenity and peace within that I just don't seem to find anywhere else.
Thank you so much for your music guys, you give us so much more than you know.
