According to Exclaim!, Got a Girl originated in 2010, when the pair met at a cast dinner of Scott Pilgrim vs. the World which co-starred Winstead. Nakamura had contributed music to the film, and she approached him saying she was a fan. At the film's red carpet premiere, Nakamura asked Winstead if they could "make music together".[1]
Winstead and Nakamura worked together musically on Deltron 3030's album Event 2 (released 2013), which Nakamura produced and Winstead provided vocals for the songs "The Agony" and "Look Across the Sky".[2]
In May 2012, The Playlist reported that Winstead and Nakamura were working on a record.[3] Winstead had previously sung an a cappella cover of the song "Baby It's You" by the Shirelles for the 2007 film Death Proof,[4] and co-wrote and recorded a demo with music producer Thai Long Ly.[5] Winstead and Dan had also performed an original song at the SXSW in March 2013.
In September 2015, they embarked on a four-city tour of Seattle, San Francisco, New York City, and Los Angeles, where they played their entire album live, including a cover of Handsome Boy Modeling School's "I've Been Thinking".[7][8]
