released February 17, 2022

It’s been about two and a half years since this project got under way and needless to say a lot has happened since that time. With the onset of the pandemic we were faced with challenges which caused inevitable delays and restrictions, but in the end we prevailed and got it over the finish line to finally end the marathon.

I would like to express my gratitude to the following: Jeremiah Simmons, Tyrell Johnman, Heaven Brownell, Alex Buchanan, Shelburne County Arts Council and special thanks to Doug Keefe - an old friend and musical compadre, who went above and beyond the call of duty.

All music and lyrics written by Paul Smeets. (SOCAN)
Produced by Paul Smeets and Alex Buchanan.

Paul Smeets - vocals, guitars, bass, and keyboards
Doug Keefe - drums on tracks 1, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 11 and 12
Tyrell Johnman - drums on tracks 2, 6 and 10
Alex Buchanan - piano on track 1

Tracks 1, 2, 5, 6, 7 and 10 recorded by Jeremiah Simmons at Voodoo Architect in Edmonton, Alberta.

All songs mixed and mastered and tracks 3, 4, 8, 9, 11 and 12 recorded by Alex Buchanan at HarbourTone Productions in Shelburne, Nova Scotia.

Funded in part by the Shelburne County Arts Council SCAC Records program.
