Maren Morris Celebrates Positivity on Single ‘People Still Show Up’

Maren Morris has shared a new single, “People Still Show Up.” The song was co-written with Jack Antonoff and Laura Veltz and produced by Antonoff, drawing inspiration from the 1970s.

“I had no idea after writing this song at the beginning of 2023 how much deeper of a change my life was going to take, and I’m shook that it resonates with me today even more than it did then,” Morris said in a statement. “From needing a martini and therapy session with my best friend at our favorite new haunt, to a trauma dump writing session turned manic giggle fest, to the hometown energy of every lunatic show… my friends, family, cowriters, and fans still showed up. If it’s 2000 people or just 1, you only need one hand to help you out.”

She added, “Also, to be frank, with everything going on right now, l just wanted to put out something vibey and fun. I know it’s an election year and the energy around it can feel extremely dense, but please SHOW UP for yourself and your family (born or chosen) and vote.”
