In 2020, they released their sixth studio album, Ball Park Music, supported by "Cherub" which polled at number four in the Hottest 100 of 2020.

It won Album of the Year at the Queensland Music Awards and peaked at number two on the ARIA charts.

[3] In April 2009, the band independently released their first extended play (EP), Rolling on the Floor, Laughing Ourselves to Sleep.

[4] It was quickly championed by Triple J presenter Steph Hughes, who gave an early version of "All I Want Is You" and "Black Skies" their first national airplay.

It included the band's first Triple J hit, "iFly", which was added to high rotation and received a five-star rating from Richard Kingsmill.

Ball Park Music was named as a Triple J New Crop artist ("one of the 20 best new bands in Australia") in November 2010.

[10] Further, they were the Queensland winner of a Triple J Unearthed competition and won the chance to play at Big Day Out 2011.

[11] In June 2011, Ball Park Music released "Rich People Are Stupid" which was put on high rotation on Triple J.

[36] The band's sixth album was announced with the title of Mostly Sunny in March 2020, alongside the release of single "Spark Up!".

[39] A scheduled tour was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Australia, although the release of the self-titled album in October 2020 was followed by a concert residency at a venue in Brisbane.

[40] The album included the track "Cherub", which was considered a strong contender to reach #1 in the lead-up to the Triple J Hottest 100, 2020.

They performed originals "Stars In My Eyes", "Trippin' the Light Fantastic" and "It's Nice to Be Alive", as well as "The Real Thing" by Russell Morris and "Even When I'm Sleeping" by Leonardo's Bride.
