Though very little information is publicly available about the Flood River band and its members, the album's blurb describes them as a group of young men playing music in Harare, "poised for greater heights on the music scene". The recording company is Shed Studios, a music production company which produced hundreds of bands, often for advertisement jingles and film soundtracks in Zimbabwe (then Rhodesia). Shed Studios was founded in 1975 and ran until 2000, as a collaboration between Steve Roskilly, Martin Norris and Neil Thain, all employees of Rhodesia Television.
