Development

Brickell started work on the album during her 2003 tour supporting Volcano . According to Brickell, "The first three songs for the solo album were recorded on a day off during the tour. They were all new songs and I wanted to record them while they were fresh and we were feeling them. Too many times I had waited months, even years to record a song and by that time, the feeling was gone and the song came out like a memory instead of an experience. So, any time I got a batch of five or six songs, I’d get together with the band and record them while they were new. I wanted to make a record where every song communicated a strong and true energy."
