“One afternoon in July I saw a floating balloon in my backyard. There was something very mesmerizing about the isolation and distance that a balloon has alone in an open sky,” writes Barnes of the song. “I felt it represented the way I tend to self-isolate and observe my surroundings when I feel uninvited or overwhelmed.

I love the softness of the music video for “Floating Balloon.” Do you have a favorite scene or moment from the shoot? Filming the music video for “Floating Balloon” was one of the most fun experiences I’ve had so far making the music for my upcoming EP. I had never worked on video outside of just me and my mom behind the camera. Working with Paige Stark on this felt so right since she was also a part of producing the song and we shared the same vision. My favorite shot in the video comes from the park setting when it's a far away shot of me laying on my back and then switches to a close up shot above me.
