In August 2015, Palmer and her father went to a cabin in Upstate New York when she was eight months pregnant. Anxious about her impending motherhood and looking to connect with her own father who was absent for most of her early childhood, they decided to record an album of covers together.[2] The album's cover pays homage to Bob Dylan's Bringing It All Back Home.

An animated music video drawn by Chiara Ambrosio was released on October 31, 2016.[7]

On Metacritic the albums holds a score of 72 based on reviews from 7 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews." Rob Wacey for Allmusic called the album " Beautifully delivered, both father and daughter complement each other's vocals extremely well" and that "for an album of cover songs, the result still feels entirely personal and held dear when hearing the father and daughter pay tribute to their inspirations together."[14] Dan Fielding for The Line of Best Fit said "Standing alone, this a warming set of tastefully executed covers. But see the album in its context and you’ll find its beauty – a record of music repairing a once strained relationship."[15]
