In 2012 Trevor Montgomery released Navigated Like the Swan, his first album under the Young Moon moniker. According to The Wall Street Journal "It engulfs the listener - and sometimes even the narrator...", while Consequence of Sound called it "...powerful and heartfelt...". Soon after its release, the relationship that inspired those songs unraveled, leaving Montgomery at an all-time low, living on a houseboat out of necessity, and unable to write songs, or even play guitar. "That part of me was broken. My life was pretty broken as well" says Montgomery. Though he eased back into the habit of playing music on a daily basis, something was still missing. Drummer Syam Zapalowski was a Young Moon fan, and started pursuing Montgomery about playing live shows with him. Zapalowski's persistence and encouragement led Young Moon to expand to include Montgomery's longtime collaborator Danny Grody on guitars and synths, and Jeff Moller on bass. "It was a natural progression for Young Moon. I needed to have more dynamics and volume to tell the stories the way they were laying out in my head," says Montgomery. Inspired by the newfound potential of a full band, the songs that make up the new album Colt started coming together.
