This story of
moving west is a duet between vocalist Jim Adkins and folk
singer-songwriter Courtney Marie Andrews, who is on five Invented tracks all together. "She plays around Phoenix," explained guitarist Tom Linton to Chart Attack.
"She's a folk artist. Jim met her at a show and started talking to her.
He had her come down to the studio and it ended up working out."
The
reference to Grateful Dead in this song does not mean Jimmy Eat World
are fans of the legendary rockers. Lead singer Jim Adkins said in a
track-by track on the Friends or Enemies
website: "I can't stand the Grateful Dead. But, I just really thought
the character in this song would have one of their bootlegs as they
drove across country looking for something new."
