Turns out, How Did We Get Here is also a pretty good question to ask when we look around at all the people who helped us make this record. Records may have two names on the front, but they are never made by two people — this one carries the fingerprints, hearts, talent, meals, laughter, encouragement, and generous love of so many people who showed up for us and these songs.

Jayne & Beckie — You breathed life into these songs and believed in us, sometimes before we quite knew how to believe in ourselves. Every Post-it note, shared meal,wild idea and conversation is forever woven into this record, but your beloved friendship is the part we treasure most. Charles — There’s not another soul we would have wanted walking us through this. You gathered the perfect band, found the record inside the songs, and made every session feel like magic. You made the process as meaningful as the record itself. We got a hell of a record, one of the greatest recording experiences of our lives, and somewhere along the way, a really good friend. Tom — You are the glue running through this entire record, saving us more times than we can count. Marc & John — Thank you for creating bass and drum parts that somehow felt like they had always belonged there. You never just played the songs; you listened to them, and that made all the difference. Philippe — Your brilliant soul shines through every instrument you touch. Thank you for listening so deeply, making these songs more beautiful. Kevin — From engineering and helping produce our very first EP to bringing your excellence and creativity to this record all these years later, having you here for this chapter means more than you know. Kim K — Your voice and friendship have been a comfort to us for years, and you have that rare gift of making a room warmer, a song better and, usually, a whole lot funnier. Thank you for bringing your unmistakable voice, enormous heart and all that laughter to this record. Vicki — Some voices you hear; yours you feel, and we’re so grateful to have a little piece of that soul forever woven into this record. Robert — Your encouragement reminded us that we really are all in this together. Thank you for bringing all your goodness — and that glorious voice — into the room. Shelly — Our beautiful, free, wild spirit — you flew in from the UK just in time to sing on this record. Your resilience, wild heart and one-of-a-kind voice are etched into our musical lives, but even more deeply, your friendship is etched into us. Jen — Thank you for all the years you've shared your community with us and encouraged us to share our story and songs with the world. And for lending your words to "Gold Stars": we are honored. Every gold star we've got is yours. Geoffrey — Thank you for opening your artist studio to us as our songs were finding their shape. Charlie — Our favorite intern — we loved having you in the room and being part of this chapter with us. We can’t wait to see all the beautiful things you’ll create, and when you’re wildly successful, please remember we knew you when. Alex — Knowing “I Hear You Calling” is the route you take means we'll forever hear that song and picture you making your way home. Wes + Linda Yoder, Melissa Goodson, Jen Cooke + Amy Law, and Dean + David Logan — Thank you for opening your homes and hearts to us around your tables, beds to land in, late-night conversations and so much laughter. You gave these songs — and us — places to rest along the way and made being away from home feel a whole lot more like home. Steve A — You believed in us and supported us before almost anyone, when there wasn’t a clear road ahead. You believed when it was still a dirt path, and we will never forget it. Nicole + Michael Sloan — You two have poured more gasoline on our fire than probably anyone by continually looking for ways to help us move forward. You and your community are forever in our hearts. Russ Harrington + Brent Harrington — Thank you for getting us through 100-degree heat that alone deserves an album credit. Your artistry, patience and good humor got us through every sweaty minute and gave this record a face. Mary Beth — What a gift to have you in our corner. Thank you for enduring the heat and keeping us glowing instead of looking like we were in a sweat lodge. We're forever grateful! Emily Y — You stopped in at just the right moment to encourage our hearts and these songs, and somehow we found our long-lost little sister in the process. St. Thomas Episcopal Church, Burnsville, NC — Thank you for loving us enough to let us go. We carry you in our hearts everywhere. “Let it Be Love” is dedicated to you all.
