Phosphorescent released Here's to Taking It Easy in 2010. In 2009, inspired by Willie Nelson's tribute album to Lefty Frizzell To Lefty from Willie, Houck crafted a tribute album to Nelson himself entitled To Willie, which was released through Dead Oceans. The latter was named the 12th best album of 2007 by Stylus Magazine and received an 8.0 rating from the online indie magazine Pitchfork. Phosphorescent rose to wider critical acclaim after releasing Aw Come Aw Wry in August 2005 and Pride in October 2007. The following year, he released the EP The Weight of Flight. The album was released through Athens, Georgia-based independent label Warm Records. Houck later changed his recording name to Phosphorescent and released the full-length LP A Hundred Times or More in 2003. Before recording under the name Phosphorescent, Matthew Houck traveled the world playing under the name Fillup Shack and self-released a limited pressing of the album Hipolit in 2000.
