Content

The five-track EP was self-released on compact disc and digital download, on May 5, 2016. It was recorded by Paul Ritchie at Insidious Sound in Neptune City, New Jersey, and mastered by Pat Noon at Eightsixteen Studios in South River, New Jersey.[1] The album photography is by Michael Burke and layout by Michael Loupos. Jenn Fantaccione plays cello on "Convenience Store." Get to the Boat is noted for its punk influences, and is described as "a sardonic statement on the banality of existence."[1][2] In a 2017 interview with The Pop Break, Yawn Mower expains the album "was our first proper release, so I feel like we spent more time on that one. We stepped away from sessions to let the ideas simmer."[3]
