Based around a tasteful, lilting drum beat, Meadow Meadow’s “Boundless” mainly muses around cloudy piano chords in a lackadaisical realm.

The dual crooning vocals are wistful, with lyrics ruminating on impending fatherhood, written just before the birth of Green’s daughter.
“I wanted to write about the feelings of opportunity and trepidation surrounding the birth and everything that would follow,” says Green, “feelings that are impossible to predict and would undeniably shift the way I viewed the world.”
