Background

[edit]

Singer Sonny Sandoval stated on the background of the acoustic album, "We were jamming like this 22 years ago just for fun... So you kind of go through your catalog of songs that you could do acoustically and there is a handful of songs that we were doing that were fun so we wanted to get something out there for fun."[4] The album was crowdfunded through PledgeMusic.[5]
