"This Is What I Do" sits on The Instigator, the 2002 album Rhett Miller made on his own, away from his job as lead singer of the Old 97's; it was only his second solo album, and his first in more than a decade. The credits on this track list just two players: Miller on acoustic guitar and vocals, and Jon Brion handling drums, bass and electric guitar.

Elsewhere on the record Miller gets a visit from one of his idols, Robyn Hitchcock, who turns up on "Point Shirley", and the album borrows its title from another of its songs, "The El".
