From paulmccartney.com, November 13, 2020:
Home is the first in a series of streaming-only EPs released in the build-up to McCartney III, featuring previously released songs that tie in with the themes of the new album.
It’s no surprise that ‘home’, a theme that was significant in Paul’s early solo work such as McCartney and RAM, will appear again in his third self-titled solo record. The Home EP takes us back to basics with comforting yet uplifting songs, from the upbeat ‘Eat At Home’ which makes you want to dance on your kitchen floor, to the soft and beautiful ‘Every Night’ which will have you cosying up with a loved one.
