Paper Kites - If You Go There, I Hope You Find It

The Paper Kites have long been the quiet soundtrack of modern life—songs played at weddings, on road trips, and during late-night reflections, with an intimacy that feels deeply personal. Their breakthrough single “Bloom” became a worldwide phenomenon, inspiring billions of streams and even a stunning cover by Kelly Clarkson, while their music has underscored cultural touchstones such as Grey’s Anatomy, This Is Us, and Virgin River. Along the way, they have quietly influenced a new generation of songwriters, with artists like Zach Bryan and Lizzie McAlpine citing them as inspirations.

Now, with their seventh studio album If You Go There, I Hope You Find It, The Paper Kites reaffirm their place as one of the most quietly influential bands of their time. “When the Lavender Blooms” is a tender meditation on allowing love and joy back in after seasons of distance. “Every Town” follows the haunting way memories and longing accompany us everywhere. And “Change of the Wind” offers both a personal and universal plea: while we cannot change everything around us, we can change ourselves.

The album, infused with the band’s signature harmonies and understated beauty, is an invitation to pause, reflect, and rediscover something real.
