Something Worth Waiting For marks Friko's first LP as a quartet, with guitarist Korgan Robb and bassist David Fuller joining founding duo Niko Kapetan and Bailey Minzenberger. It was produced by Mannequin Pussy and Angel Olsen collaborator John Congleton, and recorded at his Los Angeles studio. "If the general theme of the record is transit, then the title gets at the idea of always moving toward something you never quite seem to reach," Kapetan said in a press statement.
