Recorded primarily at Threshold Studios in New York City, where Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Masquerade recorded its vocal sessions, the EP was produced by Andy Roninson and Sean McVerry, engineered by Simon Brown, Diana Romualdo, Griffin Brown, and Jack Brandon Gray, mixed by Zeno Pittarelli, and mastered by Jack Kennedy, with additional piano engineering by Julia Rangel and Ben Collette.
The EP’s release arrives just two days before The Real Kyle McCarren makes its UK debut at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
