The band started recording their debut album in late 2015. Recording was conducted in Los Angeles, on a Tascam four-track that belonged to Rain's brother, River Phoenix. "River would always four-track, and I would come in and sing harmonies on his stuff. It was very tactile for me. It was so cool."

They released the album's lead single "Marry Me" on June 10, 2016. The accompanying music video was released through YouTube on July 15, 2016. On July 15, 2016, the band also revealed the release date, cover art and track listing for the album, entitled Brother, Son.
