"Backseat of My Mind" ended a three-year wait for new Thelma Plum originals when it arrived in 2022 to lead off Meanjin, her third EP. Since her 2019 debut album, an ARIA winner, the Australian singer-songwriter had kept busy with a cover of Powderfinger's "These Days" and "Go to War" with Briggs, both in 2020. In April 2022 she let slip that she had a whole album finished and then some, two bodies of work she was still figuring out how to release. Alexander Burnett holds a composer credit.
It drew a Song of the Year nomination at the 2022 National Indigenous Music Awards and made the APRA Music Awards shortlist for the same prize in 2023, and at the Queensland Music Awards it collected Song of the Year along with the Pop Award, a win that earned Plum her first plaque on Brunswick Street Mall's Walk of Fame.
