Fun Facts: They had written and recorded "G-Get Up And Dance! in Faber's barn. One night, they were in a bar and someone, who was working at the bar, noticed them and instantly put on "Second Chance". Everyone just decided to go get drinks so the band decided to write a fun, party song".
They were originally planning on releasing "G-Get Up And Dance!" under a side project called "Badass Moustache" but their record label had convinced them to release it under "Faber Drive". '
It was also co-written by Ricarda Faber, Faber's wife.
