Aaron Sprinkle produced "Marvelous Things" with Eisley, while the band themselves produced two tracks.
Comprised of sister Chauntelle, Sherri and Stacy DuPree, along with brother Weston and family friend Jonathan Wilson, Eisley hails from Tyler, Texas and first attracted a following playing in the Deep Ellum district of nearby Dallas.
After appearing at various musical festival bills throughout the region, Eisley recorded a demo that quickly brought them to the attention of Reprise Records. The group was subsequently recruited by bands such as Coldplay, Brand New and Snow Patrol to open on US tours and have also performed at such prestigious venues as the Coachella Music Festival and Britain's V2003 Festival with much critical acclaim.
