Back in August, headliner Thelma Plum featured as The Music’s Cover Artist around the release of restorative EP, Meanjin, inspired by her Brisbane hometown, family and lockdown nostalgia.
On lead single Backseat Of My Mind, Plum noted: "When I wrote that song, I remember being a bit emo. We'd had shows cancelled. I just remember being like, 'I just wanna be on tour. I wanna work. I miss being on the road.' All of these things that I thought I did not like about touring – which was being on the road and moving around, travelling so much – I missed it."
