All music and words written by Gideon Crevoshay and Jeremy Thal. We made the recordings surrounded by forest in the Hudson Valley.

Basic tracks were done at a friend’s family’s old house in Columbia County, NY. It was recorded mostly live with drummer Tommy Crane and guitarist Simon Jermyn filling out the band. For the sessions, Simon’s guitar amp was placed out on a porch where we had it both close mic’d and mic’d a few feet back to get the resonance of the valley. After recording for a few days, a neighbor came by to congratulate him on his playing.

It was then completed between two friend’s studios in Brooklyn, where the band was then based. The record feels like a well-crafted ensemble creation, and we like to think the surrounding environs were part of it.
