Background

After touring in support of Simple Forms, their third studio album, the ensemble returned to Los Angeles to begin an acoustic project.[5] In September 2017, the ensemble released the title track "A Still Heart", a portmanteau of songs "A Stillness" and "Hearts Like Ours". "Punching in a Dream" was released at the end of 2017.[6] In February 2018, the band announced the release date for the compilation.[7]
