In the words of the songwriter, Evan Murphy:
There is a scene in the Odyssey when Odysseus washes up on shore, shipwrecked and nearly drowned. A young woman named Naussica is washing her clothes when she sees the naked man of twists and turns in dire need of help. As Naussica’s family nurses Odysseus back to health, he develops an affection for her. I always wondered whether Odysseus started to doubt his voyage at that point, tempted to stay put on that island, imagining a whole alternative life for himself. This song started out as a jaunty folk rock number that I strummed on guitar with my fellow songwriter Danny Erker, but I started to imagine it with double time banjo and a pulsing, anthemic string band groove. Happily my bandmates were more than up for the challenge. I love how this one turned out.
