Their self-titled album was quickly recorded in California while the band was in the middle of a tour, then released in 2016.

They began playing shows around Brooklyn and amassed a devoted fan base who loved to dance to the duo's music. Kim learned to play drums, Matt found a couple of old keyboards, and together they began writing songs inspired by punk and new wave and infused with the duo's happy energy. Matt Johnson and Kim Schifino began dating in 2002 while attending the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, and after a couple years of working on art projects together, decided they wanted to start a band. They held on to that level of popularity by releasing albums and eye-catching videos that enthusiastically melded punk-pop, hip-hop, and radio pop.
