“These songs came to life during a COVID lockdown in 2021 with my old pal Indio Saravanja just before my West Coast studio was destroyed by floods. I called him to town and in 6 epic days we polished a few of my new songs, co-wrote others, and recorded and co-produced a 10 song album that was partially released on 3 AM Relevations and now on this companion record. I sang and played guitar and Indio handled all keyboards, bass and additional guitars. My friend Pete Thomas did the drum parts with us over a conference call in LA over at Boulevard Recorders , Liberace’s old studio, where part of Fleetwood Mac’s Rumours was recorded, Indio signed off and left town, and I added some extra magic with some mutual friends of us both: Scott Smith - guitars on Marie and These Days. Ryland Moranz - banjo on Smile for a Stranger. Daniel Lapp - fiddle on Leaving Here. Dan Weisenburger - mandolin/vocals on Leaving Here. Evan Phillips sings on These Days. Zak Cohen mixed it all and John Greenham mastered. Leaving Here is an old Indio song and Joe Strummer (RIP) wrote The Road To Rocknroll for us all.”
