MARIS Releases New Song “Salt Water Taffy”
Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter MARIS released a new song “Salt Water Taffy” on August 2, 2024.
The song is the third single of 2024, following “The Fight” and “Julia Roberts”.
MARIS co-wrote the song with members of American indie pop band flor. Produced by Dylan Bauld, and Val Hoyt.
The track reflects on MARIS' childhood summer memories getting salt water taffy at the beach.
MARIS said of the song, “I wanted “Salt Water Taffy” to feel like summertime as a kid. The smell of rolling in the grass, the taste of salt water taffy from this old candy store called the Sweet Palace in Philipsburg, Montana, and the feeling of sunscreen on my skin. I wrote it with Dylan Bauld and Val Hoyt and it started with a chord progression that we loved. I based the lyrics on a line from a poem I had written earlier that week that went 'gave you all of my vacation days' and from there it formed into my ode to summertime.”- source : Apple Music
