Regarding the release, vocalist/guitarist Scott Hutchison stated that he "[doesn't] care if people buy it or don't buy it, download it or steal a track from their friends. It's for the fans, the people who were there and for me as a souvenir of the show".[4]

Guests on the album are James Graham (The Twilight Sad), who provides lead vocals on "Keep Yourself Warm", and Ross Clark (Three Blind Wolves & Fiskur), who plays on "Old Old Fashioned" and "Poke".[5]
