The album is all original tracks, with only Cleburne Terrace having been played previously by Widespread Panic on several occasions in the early 1990s.[3] Musically it is a departure from the typical output of Widespread Panic, with very sparse arrangements and acoustic melodies, lilting lullabies and very little percussion.
