"Yellow Bike" rolls in on Phoenix, the January 2019 record that woke the Pedro the Lion name from a long sleep: released through Polyvinyl, it was the band's fifth studio album and the first under that banner since Achilles Heel in 2004. David Bazan wrote the song alone, words and music, and produced and mixed it with Andy Park, who recorded it, with Sam Rosson assisting.
Phoenix was also the opening chapter of something bigger, a planned cycle of five autobiographical albums, which carried on with Havasu in 2022 and Santa Cruz in 2024, both looking back at Bazan's growing-up years.
