Following the release of their well received and much more grown-up Ganging Up on the Sun in 2006, Guster took a mini-hiatus to focus on parenting and other ventures. They were also continuing to transition into becoming a quartet, as producer/multi-instrumentalist Joe Pisapia had just joined the group. But three years later they were back at it and performing at venues across the States with new tracks in their arsenal. These songs would soon become the building blocks for the band's 2010 record, Easy Wonderful. Its lead single “Bad, Bad World” being any indication, the album should be another mature-sounding effort with hints of Guster's earlier albums' youthful melodies.
