On July 23, 2010 lead vocalist Cassadee Pope posted on the official website that it would no longer be an album but a 6-song CD EP (and a 7-song EP on iTunes).[2] She also said that a full-length album would follow in early 2011. The lead single "I Don't Wanna Dance" was released on July 27, 2010, and the video, shot on June 24, premiered on MTV July 29. On August 12, 2010, Hey Monday's now-former bassist Jersey Moriarty and Pope tweeted that the album was available for streaming on their MySpace page. Patrick McKenzie did not record the drums for this EP. Instead, Stacy Jones of American Hi-Fi played the drums.
In the United States, the album debuted on the Billboard 200 at #25, selling 14,494 copies in its first week and gave the band its most successful charting. This was the last material released by the band with the original bassist, Jersey Moriarty.
