"Have Love, Will Travel" was released as the first and only single from the album on 4 January 2011.

Background and recording

"It all stemmed from my live shows" Diesel said. He was doing shows in Sydney and Melbourne and performing covers; "Liberation Records heard about it and said, 'you've got to make a record like that'. So we have!"
Diesel and his band recorded 18 songs live in the studio in 8 days. 6 of these appear on the 7 Axes EP.

Reviews

Rod Whitfield from Beat Magazine said the EP was "standard" saying " does well, with both his voice and guitar playing predictably shining through. Does he make them his own? No. That's the problem."
