I would like to thank (In no particular order): mom and dad and Jacqui(my sister) for putting up with me and my whining for 7 months while I sorted out my Visa in South Africa, for letting me make so much noise and for always supporting me. Patricia, for inspiring me, sticking with me through the international crazyness, your beautiful voice and for always being honest about my music. Chris, for the life your drums breathed into the tracks, and your demonic live alter-ego. Kåre and Mike for managing to sculpt an amazing mix out of 80-90 audio tracks per song. Stuart Barke and Jon Pentreath for letting me use their amps. Emily and Joe, for doing such an amazing job with the mastering. Andy Baldwin. for such a great drum recording at such short notice. Andy Taub, for the incredible studio and drum engineering. The Lodge, for putting up with my rehearsals, and weekend and late night recording sessions. My live band, Nic Bacon, Bryn Roberts and Matt Clohesy. I would also like to thank the following people for offering their ears up to give opinions and support throughout the process: Øyvind Jenssen, Iris Loeffler, Matt Robertson, Alex Weinstein, Lucie Beranek, Felicia Beranek, Paul Scafturis, Neil McLellan, Thomas Kongshavn, Kristian Sveholm, Lena Grass, Jay Clark, and anyone I mistakenly left out.
