After releasing Chase the White Whale in 2008, Driver Friendly stopped making music; vocalist/keyboardist Tyler Welsh stated "it wasn't official, but we were essentially not a band". In 2011, the group realized that change was needed, they went to a cabin in North Carolina to write what would become Bury a Dream. To cover the costs of recording it, the band set up a Kickstarter campaign. It was produced by the band's longtime producer, Jim Vollentine. Eventually, the band self-released Bury a Dream in April 2012. In October, it was announced Driver Friendly had signed to Hopeless. The band released the EP, Peaks + Valleys in June 2013 and went on the 2013 edition of Warped Tour in July. Following this, in November, the band acted as a support act for a Relient K and Motion City Soundtrack co-headlining tour in the U.S. The band went on a brief tour of Texas with Wild Party in January and February 2014.
