After that they decided to record them, and the band recorded seven songs in eight days.[3] The lead singer of the band, Edie Brickell, says that the album doesn't have too much structure, and often bounces between genres.[3] Brickell also hopes that this album is a new beginning for the band and will bring them back on the radar.[3]
