This album began about a week before the shutdown of March 2020. The song "Right now, distance is the best thing" was coming together out of worry of the Pandemic and anxiety about the shutdown, but ultimately arriving at the conclusion that just in general with the state of things (beyond the pandemic), maybe Right now, distance is the best thing.

I wanted to do something different with this record than what I typically would have with the Cool Minors. I imagined a sonic departure. I don’t know if that idea was fully realized.
