Background

edit

After forming in January 2015, Movements self-released their first single, "Protection" on January 31, 2015.[4] The band played their first show opening for Have Mercy in March 2015.[5] A second single, "Buried" was released on March 17.[6] A third single, "Scripted" was released on April 14.[7] After only one local gig, the band signed a three-record deal with Fearless Records in August 2015.[8][9]

Before recording their first EP, guitarist Brett Chiodo left the band in January 2016.[10] Chiodo wrote the EP with the band, but did not participate in the recording.[11] He was replaced by guitarist Ira George.

The band chose producer Will Yip to work on their debut EP. Outgrown Things was released on March 11, 2016.[1] The EP was preceded by two singles, "Kept" and "Nineteen".[2][12]
