Noah Weinman discussed the new song saying, "I wrote this song back in 2017. It’s kind of about depending on small, insignificant things to make big, important changes in my life, and how silly that is. There’s a lyric in the second verse about re-recording a thousand times that became a kind of prophecy in that I’ve made dozens of versions of the song before this one. I’m very relieved to finally be putting it out.”
"Chamomile" follows the 2024 ambient album, Starsdust, and improvisational performance album, Dust 2, as well as a string of singles including, "Untitled October Song", "Coinstar", and "Spackle".
