Background

Faker and Marr first connected via social media. In a media press, Marr explained Faker had posted one of his songs on Twitter. Marr messaged and thanked Faker and a conversation began. They exchanged song ideas and agreed to do something together. The pair met in Marr's South London recording studio in 2015 and recorded the 4-track EP in four days. "It was a real thrill as the songs came together," Marr said. "As far as working out lyrics and music, [Faker] is super-talented". "The Trouble with Us" made its world premier on Triple J on 15 October 2015 on Linda Marigliano's 'Good Nights' show and was released commercially the following day.[1][2][3]
