Due West has released two full-length studio albums, several EPs, and five singles including "Things You Can't Do in a Car", which charted at number 47 on Billboard Hot Country Songs.

[1][2] Singer-songwriters Tim Gates, Brad Hull, and Matthew Lopez— respectively natives of Richfield, Utah, Thatcher, Arizona, and Wolf, Wyoming— met in 2004 when they were invited by Diamond Rio member Dan Truman to attend a party at his sister's house.

The three began performing and writing songs together soon afterward, as they noticed common interests in bands such as Shenandoah and McBride & the Ride.

Don Chance of the Times Record News rated the album "C", as he thought the songs were well-written and produced but lacking in artistic identity.

[8] Kevin John Coyne of Country Universe rated "The Bible and the Belt" an "F", criticizing its lyrical content for advocating child beatings.

[9] Roughstock reviewer Matt Bjorke rated Forget the Miles four stars out of five, praising the band's lyrical content and finding their vocal harmony comparable to Restless Heart.
