In Their Words: “In writing this album about grief I knew I also wanted to share the beauty of moments when I still feel my brother’s presence. For me those moments often happen in nature, so spending time in wild places became an important source of comfort and healing. That’s what ‘Meet You There’ is about. This was one of the last songs on the record to be finished, because deep down I didn’t feel ready to write something hopeful. In a way, this song helped guide me toward a feeling I had been searching for. Writing it was a reminder of the joy my brother brought into the world, as well as the magic in moments when I know he is still with me.” — Hannah Connolly
