The EP is the first part of a two-part series with the second volume The Journey BNA, Vol. 2 being released in November 2018.

Background

Brandt conceived the idea of the two-part extended play series while on a motorcycle trip along the Pacific Coast Highway in California. He thought of it as a reverse concept of his past hit "Alberta Bound", starting with him conceptually in Calgary, Alberta, before progressing to Nashville, Tennessee for the second volume.
