Upon arrival, their friend spotted a reminder of his ex-girlfriend, exactly one year after their split. The three were all going through breakups at the time, and after the game Giveon and Thomas decided to use that as inspiration in the studio. “That’s when the whole ‘Heartbreak Anniversary’ idea came about,” says Thomas.

At the studio, the two began reflecting on their own heartbreak. “It was almost like a therapy session,” recalls Thomas. “We let our guard down completely with each other and just talked about real-life situations.” The sessions resulted in, Giveon’s 2020 debut EP on Not So Fast/Epic Records. “I had just left a [five-year] relationship while working on this project,” says Giveon.

“I wanted Giveon’s voice to be the main instrument,” adds Thomas. “That was such a powerful, compelling, captivating vocal performance, and it sounds vintage, like it came from a time before us.”
