Maren Morris sat down with Kyle Meredith backstage at Bourbon and Beyond to talk about her Intermission EP, a stunning reflection of life in flux. It’s been a whirlwind since Morris released Humble Quest, with the singer-songwriter making bold changes to her career and life. As she told Meredith, “You’re going to have to sacrifice your old life to get to your new one.” Morris describes Intermission as an appetizer of what’s to come, though its emotional weight packs a full-course punch. The standout “I Hope I Never Fall in Love” channels raw heartbreak, with Morris pushing her vocals to a gritty, soul-baring edge. “It needed that desperation and anger,” she said. The EP’s title speaks to the moment: a pause, but hardly a stop. Morris is deep in the creative process, balancing new writing trips with festival performances. “At the end of the day, I’m still an album girl,” she said, clearly inspired by the wave of powerhouse women dominating the charts. But she’s not rushing — this new chapter is unfolding on her terms. Listen to Maren Morris chat about all this and more in the new episode or watch it on YouTube.
