"Wayside" was one of three singles Birds of Tokyo pulled from Day One, their debut album, and it went out in 2007 along with "Black Sheets", a year after "Off Kilter" had kicked things off. The album itself landed that February on the independent Egg Records, pieced together in late 2006 across a run of studios stretching from Fremantle and West Perth to Dunsborough and Melbourne.

Adam Spark has his hands all over this one: he wrote it with Anthony Jackson, Ian Kenny and Adam Weston, co-produced it with the band, and recorded and engineered it alongside Shaun O’Callaghan, who also handled the mix.
