Speaking of the first single "Raindance", released in January 2019, Storer said: "'Raindance' is a song of hope. It also sends a message of coming together through dance and song. Music is great therapy and while our nation waits on rain let's dance and sing this drought away. As a songwriter, we can often find ourselves writing stories with a heavy heart whether it be about ourselves or of others. So with regard to the drought, and the endless hardships of Aussie farmers, I felt it time to write a song of hope. A song that can lift out spirits during the nations wait for rain."
