Background
Talking about the song with BuzzFeed, Jack Avery said, "The recording process was fun because it was our first time actually stepping into a big studio after recording from our rooms for our other EPs. We went in and connected with Steve Mac, who was really awesome and humble, got some takes done quickly and now we have this amazing song." After recording their previously released EPs in a home studio, the band upgraded to a professional studio for the song "Trust Fund Baby". The song was co-written by Ed Sheeran, describing what they learned from Sheeran, Daniel Seavey said, "Seeing how passionate he still is with all of his success. He could right now be like, 'I'm done' and be good for the rest of his life, but it's not about being good for the rest of his life. It's about the music."
