Saleh previously worked with Bon Iver in 2020, on the song “Bloodrush” with Andrew Broder, Denzel Curry, and Haleek Maul; the duo also served as co-writers on Travis Scott’s 2023 song “My Eyes.” Their third official collaboration came together during a recording session in Minneapolis. “Flood” is inspired by Saleh’s experiences with climate-related flooding while living in Cardiff, Wales.

“We were all writing together, following instinct,” Saleh said in a press statement. “[Bon Iver]’s enthusiasm, emotional honesty, and melodic intuition made everything feel effortless. What stayed with me most was how he continued to show up afterward, excited by the demos, retracking vocals, and helping shape arrangements as the songs evolved.”
