Background

The album was written by Kenney and was produced by Chaz Bear, who is also known as Toro y Moi.[2][3][4] The songs in the album were described as "seeming to focus more on moody thoughtfulness than a specific message."[5] PopMatters rated the album with 8 out of 10 and described it as a reliably satisfying listen.[6][7]

Kenney was initially unfamiliar with the musical style of Bear, who asked her if he could produce the album. She said "Chaz came to one of our shows and afterwards he came up to me and was like, ‘That was really great. I want to record you’ and I was like, ‘Okay!’ and ‘Oh, whatever!’".[8]
