The album is compiled of songs that the members wrote individually, then rearranged them as a band and songs they wrote (with the band in mind) while they were still in their developing stages. They recorded the album in Nashville, alongside producer and sound engineer Erick Jaskowiak, after being recommended by friend, Carl Miner, guitar player for Greencards. Kamel said of Erick, "he did the perfect amount of production advice and he wasn't try to change what we were doing. We all hit it off really well." [3]

The song is about Kamel's grandfather and their piece of family property in Llano. [12] The band was inspired after seeing Willie Nelson perform at his ranch in Luck, Texas, they created Kingpin as a traveling tune. They made a music video for the song from video footage from a show at one of their favorite Austin music venues, Mohawk.[13] North of Despair was released on April 13th, 2018.

[15] Released through Blue Corn Music.[11] The lead single is called Pigs and was released on July 9th, 2020. The track is “social commentary for sure — mostly around money. Money, divisive profit-driven news cycles, profits over people, constant consumption and waste — you know all of those uplifting modern hypocrisies.” They had to scrap plans to make videos and they reached out to their friend, Danny Barnes, who draws comics to draw some pictures. And Kamel started to make a video with lyrics around the pictures and added basic animation to it. [17]
