The record was written and hammered out on a relentless year of touring with Julie Byrne, which took the two of them across the continent twice over to just about every DIY space imaginable: a New Orleans puppetry theater, a geodesic dome in rural Missouri, a Veterans of Foreign Wars outpost in frigid Missoula, and dives, punk houses, basements, and everything else in between. It was a journey that deeply informed both of their current records, as well as the blossoming of a deep and lasting friendship between the two. The LP was recorded in Atlanta, Brooklyn, Los Angeles, and in a cabin at the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Georgia. Engineered primarily in Atlanta by Ben Price, Suno Dekofeatures contributions from many of David’s friends in his music community, including Nicole Miglis and Zach Tetreault of Hundred Waters, who appear on “Swan Song,” as well as Julie Byrne (“Alone with You”), Jake Falby of Mutual Benefit (“Falling In,” “Altar,” and “Swan Song”), and others. For the vocal recordings, David returned to the church he grew up in, St. Bartholomew’s Episcopal Church in Atlanta, which was always a vibrantly open and inclusive space for him growing up as a queer boy in the South. The sonic personality of that rich spiritual space, and the enthusiastic support of his openly gay rector, lend the recordings a distinctive richness and warmth.
