EOB is Radiohead guitarist Ed O'Brien, who uses the moniker for his solo work. This electronic groover is the opening track of his debut solo album, Earth.
O'Brien wrote this tune about four days after coming back from Glastonbury in 2014. He told NME the song is about happiness and finding peace. "Shangri-La at 4 a.m. with your people is a glorious place to be," O'Brien said. "You feel so happy and at peace at Glastonbury, so the song was about that as well as the journey of trying to find peace of mind in your own life and coming together to celebrate that."
In 2011, O'Brien and his family moved to Brazil and lived for a year on a farm. During their time there, they visited Rio's famous carnival, an experience that inspired Earth. O'Brien told The Sun: "Glastonbury is like our carnival, our therapist. It's a place where I will always feel incredibly happy, even when it's muddy."
