Pickpocket began as a student project. Radin wrote most of the song the day prior going into the studio at The Recording Conservatory of Austin to help a student with a project where he needed to record a local artist for class. Radin finished writing the song during the 6-hour studio session and came out with an acoustic demo of what would become the final song.
