Composition

According to Rolling Stone Country, "Bingham wrote most of the album's 12 tracks alone in an airstream trailer, parked in the mountains of California without electricity or cell phones. The seclusion gave him creative clarity that resulted in songs inspired by an unstable childhood, and by the deaths of his mother to alcoholism and father to suicide."[3]

Production

The album was recorded with a new band recruited from members of Rose Hill Drive, and co-produced with Jim Scott, known for engineering Tom Petty's 1995 album Wildflowers, mixing Foo Fighters' 2002 album One by One, and co-producing Wilco's self-titled Wilco (The Album) in 2009.[3]
