Development

Bearfoot Bluegrass was more of a music camp band than a festival performing band when they went to Surreal Studio in Anchorage and cut Only Time Knows, assembled without a producer. [3] The group also had to fundraise their first album through the sponsorships of BP Exploration Alaska and Era Aviation. [4] Bearfoot Bluegrass went on to win the Telluride Bluegrass band contest in June the same year. [5] [6] The band members were 16–19 years old when they created their first album and won the Telluride band contest. [2] The album was first recorded in January 2001 while they performed at the Anchorage Folk Festival, [7] and then had a release the next month [2] before having a wider release the following March. [4]

In the week of April 13, 2000, the album debuted at #6 in the band's hometown of Anchorage. [8] In the week of September 28, 2001, their album ended up topping their local charts. [9] By January 2002, the album sold over 3,000 units. [10]
