“Charli reached out to me, and I worked with her a while ago, maybe two or three years ago on a music video, and I just kind of remember her being a light, and we kept in contact,” said Bechtel in a 2019 interview with Bazaar about the band. “I already had that trust with her.”

Bechtel is also referenced in Charli's song "360:" Call me Gabbriette, you're so inspired, she sings.
