The project's self-titled debut album was released on Hand Drawn Dracula in 2010,[2] and supported with a national tour across Canada.[4] Later in the year, Murphy released three additional non-album tracks.[5]

Postdata's second album, Let's Be Wilderness, was released in 2018 on Paper Bag Records.[1] The album was nominated for a Nova Scotia Music Award,[6] and appeared on the !earshot National Top 50 Chart in June.[7] A video for the track "Evil" was filmed in New York City by director Derrick Belcham.[8] That year the band performed at the Pop Montreal festival.[9]

The band's third album, Twin Flames, was released in March 2021. It was recorded in mid-2020 with co-producer Ali Chant, partly in Bristol, England, and partly during lockdown in Halifax.[10]
