The 16-track collection consists of various songs written and recorded before her breakthrough hit "Alaska" was released in 2016. It is split into four parts: her 2016 rock EP, the 2014 demo Blood Ballet, her work with the Del Water Gap, and the 2012 demo The Echo.[3]
Heather Phares, writing for AllMusic, praised the songs from Blood Ballet and Rogers' songwriting but said that "One More Afternoon" and "Together" "sound a little cluttered compared to the compilation's later tracks".[1]
