Recorded at Flóki Studios in December of 2022.

The album serves as a deeply personal journey for Burbridge, who uses the Garcia/Hunter catalog as a means of processing his own grief following the loss of his father, brother Kofi Burbridge, and mentor Col. Bruce Hampton.

Reflecting on that process, Oteil shares, “Looking back, I don’t feel like I was able to really process all the pain from these huge losses until I started working on these ballads. All these arrangements were written through many tears. And all the vocal tracks were recorded that way as well."

"It is my sincere hope that this album will be a catalyst for listeners to process their pain as it was for me."
