Background

The group had its beginnings as a solo project by Modern Baseball co-frontman Jake Ewald after encountering writer's block. Ewald released the project's debut EP Dawg in 2014, under the new moniker.[3] He was soon signed with Lame-O Records, the label responsible for managing Modern Baseball.[4] Under his new label, Ewald introduced his self-produced debut LP, Welcome,[5] with generally positive reviews.[6]

Following the announcement of Modern Baseball's hiatus in 2017,[7] Ewald released EP Motorcycle.jpg in collaboration with former bandmate Ian Farmer in July.[8][9] Ewald's second LP, Birdie, saw the project lineup expand with the addition of Farmer, Harris, and Robbins.[10][11] With the project's newfound members, Slaughter Beach, Dog released Safe And Also No Fear in August of the following year, with a nationwide tour.[12][13]
