The album was recorded in Sydney with producer Eric J Dubowsky. About the collaboration, Sam Teskey said, "We didn't want to go for a producer that was too close to our genre, we just wanted to branch out a bit and try to explore someone who was a bit down a different avenue."[7]

At the 2023 ARIA Music Awards, the album was nominated for Album of the Year, Best Blues & Roots Album, Best Group and Best Engineered Release.[8]

The album won Best Record at the Rolling Stone Australia Awards.[9][10]
