2020–2022: ''Necessary Evil''

In May 2020, Organ released the single "Hold Me Back". The song, which was described by Australian Independent Record Labels Association as a "raw and formidable rock track" was inspired by the Me Too movement and his own interactions with misogyny in the night clubs of Melbourne. Organ said: "On a night out with friends, I witnessed a confronting and horrible incident of harassment against one of the female friends I was with. Seeing my friend be assaulted like that and seeing how it affected her really shocked me. We confronted the perpetrator and got him barred from the club. But knowing that so many women go through this experience, I just couldn't shake the sense of anger within me, and this song was written shortly after that awful night." Proceeds from the sales and streams of the song went towards White Ribbon Australia.
In March 2021, Organ announced the release of his debut album, Necessary Evil, alongside the single "Sunday Suit". The album was recorded in 2020 with Australian producer, engineer, songwriter and singer Chris Collins in Collins' studio at Stokers Siding in the New South Wales hinterland.
