Recorded in New York between Reservoir Studios in New York City and Dreamland in upstate New York, the albumwas co-produced by Christian Lee Hutson and Jonathan Low. It stands as an ode to Maya's musical community, created alongside close friends and collaborators Benjamin Lazar Davis, Will Graefe, Michael Riddleberger, and Odessa Jorgensen. The album's packaging draws from Maya's own watercolor paintings, developed in collaboration with Shane Gelinas.
