It was written by Arlo Birss, Bella Bavin, Leo Spykerman, and Thom Boynton. Produced by Bella Bavin and Leo Spykerman.
The accompanying music video was directed by David Argue and filmed at Bethells Beach in West Auckland, New Zealand.
The band is currently working on their upcoming debut album, and the track will be included on it.- The band said of the song, “This one means a lot to us - it's loud, messy, nostalgic, and kind of a snapshot of what it feels like to grow up when everything's moving way too fast. Filmed on the beautiful Te Henga (Bethells Beach). Hope you love it as much as we do. ”
They added, “This song may cause involuntary head-banging, sudden nostalgia, and the urge to start a band.” - source : Apple Music
