This is my fourth solo album. It is the first album I didn't record on an analog cassette 4-track machine.
Recorded at Mourningwood Studio, San Francisco and in Jason and Brain's living rooms, kitchens, bedrooms, garages and yards.
Additional tracks recorded by Major Matt Mason USA at Olive Juice Music, NYC and by Kimya in the Dawson familly kitchen.
It's Been Raining and Blue Like Nevermind recorded at mains d'œvres, St. Ouen France.
Parade was recorded at the Audiology Center, Moseley, England.
Co-produced by Jason Carmer, Arion Salazar, and Kimya Dawson.
Huge thanks to Third Eye Blind for the use of their studio.
