In 2008, songwriter Ben Fox packed up his instruments and left Montreal, where he’d spent several years studying political science and English lit at Concordia University. After resettling in Toronto, he started piecing together a lineup of likeminded musicians to play the material he’d composed between classes. Joel Clifton, Branko Scekic, Dave Wickland, and Lucas Fredette all climbed aboard, and Dinosaur Bones released a self-titled EP later that year while playing a string of hometown gigs with Sloan, Sebastien Grainger, and other Canadian acts. The group eventually expanded its touring schedule into America, all the while writing material for a full-length album.
