Joe Chiccarelli guided everyone through the process and produced the album in conjunction with
Dan Hannon and Manchester Orchestra

The process included:
Pre Production rehearsals at Vision Studios in Chamblee, CA
Initial tracking at Blackbird Studios in Nashville
Overdubs at Tree Sound Studios in Norcross GA

Nick Kirk was kind enough to lend us several instruments and gadgets to aid us in the recording process.

Steve Ralbovsky and Jay Harren took care of A&R responsibilities and were instrumental in making this album.

Jack Hedges is a product Manager at Canvasback Music.

We thank god for family, fans and friends. We will never deserve the unconditional support.

Joe required excellence throughout the entire making of this album, he never allowed us to settle for less. We laughed, and screamed, and laughed some more but, it was his humility and work ethic that speaks louder then any instrument on the record.
Thank you, Joe.

Dan required depth and meaning to each note, lyric, and sound we carefully added to the once skeletal album. Dan is gifted with
the power of influence and inspiration. If he wasn't around we wouldn't know what to do. Thank you, Dan.

Our team of loyal friends has grown, and without the following, none would be possible:
