In April 2022, the band from Austin, Texas, released their first album, "Bummer Year," which received high praise. Right after a successful hometown concert celebrating the album's release, their lead guitarist, Jake Ames, was hit by a car while crossing the street. He suffered injuries to his skull and tailbone but thankfully recovered fully. This scary incident actually brought the band closer together and inspired their next album, "Lived Here For A While," which was released on May 3 by Keeled Scales. This new album is bold and captures the energetic vibe of their live performances.

Feeling reenergized, the band recorded "Lived Here For A While" at Dandy Sounds in Texas with producer Dan Duszynski the following summer. Even though Jake had to relearn some guitar parts due to his accident, his passionate playing added a special touch to the album.

Musically, this new album moves away from the Americana style of "Bummer Year" and embraces post-punk and indie rock sounds. The lyrics delve into topics like family issues, new love, and the changing meaning of home. Tyler Jordan, the band's lyricist, explores the ups and downs of relationships, highlighting both their challenges and their potential for growth and excitement.

Sadly, the band faced another setback in July 2023 when their tour van was hit from behind by a speeding car and caught fire. This led to the loss of their van, instruments, merchandise, and records. Miraculously, none of the band members were seriously hurt. This ability to bounce back from adversity is a defining trait of Good Looks and adds depth and meaning to the songs on "Lived Here For A While."
