Di sektor vokal dan gitar, nama Nai Palm adalah jaminan untuk penciptaan deretan lagu bagus. Di sektor bass, nama Paul Bender bukan sosok yang asing dalam dunia jas terkini.

Sementara, Perrin Moss dipercaya sebagai drummer dan Simon Mavin sebagai keyboardist. Lagu mereka yang berjudul “Nakamarra” yang dibantu oleh Q-Tip berhasil masuk nominasi Grammy untuk kategori Best R&B Performance. Di tahun 2014, Hiatus Kaiyote merilis 3 track sebagai preview untuk album kedua mereka, termasuk lagu “By Fire" yang memuat unsur gelap dan terinspirasi oleh kematian ayah Palm akibat kebakaran. Album kedua Hiatus Kaiyote yang ditajuki Choose Your Weapon memiliki durasi dua kali lebih panjang dari album perdana mereka. Album ini berhasil menempati posisi 22 di tangga lagu Australia di minggu pertama kemunculannya. Lagu “Breathing Underwater” dari Choose Your Weapon berhasil masuk nominasi untuk Best R&B Performance di Grammy Awards ke-58.
