Grammy-Award-Winner, Ross Hogarth, produced the record and special guest musicians include: Sheila E., Rami Jaffe (Wallflowers, Foo Fighters), Lee Thornburg (Tower of Power, Supertramp), Lon Price (Elvis Presley, Alan Toussaint, Ziggy Marley) and Sean Hurley (Alicia Keys, John Mayer).

Damon describes the process of taking their unique sound and "distilling" it down for the album, "Duke Ellington had it right when he said, 'If it sounds good, it IS good.' The guys and I don't care about genres or style lines�It's nothing that I consciously maneuver; I just try to make it feel right." More than anything, the record is a throw-back to the old days, when artists played their own music in a studio and created songs that were enjoyable not only for their passion, but also for their honesty. "It's not the homogenized production where you can't hear the music. You will hear real musicians playing real tunes," says Damon.
