The album was produced by Tim Kingsbury and Mark Lawson.[2]
The album was inspired in part by the death of someone in Bulat's personal life, although she has not provided extensive detail about it to the media.[3] At the time of the death, Bulat had an entirely different album ready to record, but felt that she could no longer connect to the material.[3] Instead, she decided to make an album which acknowledged the pain she was going through while ultimately being hopeful and uplifting.[4]
Some of the album's tracks were recorded in a Royal Canadian Legion hall in Toronto, Ontario's Beaches neighbourhood.[5]
The album was a shortlisted nominee for the Juno Award for Adult Alternative Album of the Year at the Juno Awards of 2014, and for the 2014 Polaris Music Prize.[6]
All tracks are written by Basia Bulat.
