The group's bass guitarist, Bryan Dochstader, was interviewed by an Access All Areas.com.au's correspondent ahead of their debut album, The World Can Wait (August 2005).[3] Dochstader explained why Boys & Girls was issued, "we had this album done before that and we did some b-sides in anticipation of releasing singles but we tend to shy away from singles so we kind of wanted to bundle these up and release it as a pre-album teaser so I guess that EP also served that purpose – each had their own little place to building up to this album."[3]
