The track "Hey, Would You Call My Mom For Me?" was inspired by a real interaction Heidecker had with a young man suffering from addiction in Vancouver.

A second promotional single, "Like I Do", was released on August 12, 2024. On September 16, 2024, a third promotional single, "Dad of the Year", was released with an accompanying music video. The album was released on October 18, 2024.
Critical reception Slipping Away received generally positive reviews. In a review for Northern Transmissions, Greg Walker complimented the earnestness of the songwriting, noting Heidecker's ability to subtly infuse humour into his lyrics without them losing meaning.
