The single was recorded and co-produced by Cameron Webb (Motörhead, NOFX, Weezer) in 2014 at Paramount Studios and mixed by John Lousteau (Foo Fighters, The Used, Against Me) at Dave Grohl’s “Studio 606” in Los Angeles. The song also features Josh Freese on drums (Vandals, a Perfect Circle, Guns N’ Roses) and Chris Declercq on guitar. Award winning filmmaker and music producer Martin Guigui contributed production to the completion of the song and also directed a behind-the-scenes promotional video about Chris's journey and the making of the song, to be released in conjunction with the single.
