This album all began when Forrest shared with Brian a simple guitar riff in 5/4, that he'd been plucking since 1995 and for which had no particular plans. Fascinated with the compositional possibilities, Brian wrote a B section and invited Dane to help expand its harmonic landscape. Brian surprised Forrest one day with a recorded jam session on the new tune with Alderson. Later entitled, One Thing Right, the song proved more than muse enough to inspire an album’s worth of new music. Soundside is a reference to the road where Forrest and his wife, Holly, spent their honeymoon and have returned on several occasions to watch the sunsets in The Outer Banks of North Carolina. Written as a keyboard piece initially, Brian and Dane helped Forrest adapt it to the band and added the middle chord section under the jaunty 9/8 groove.
