MARKO THANKS: My gentle, caring and inspirational mother Barbara. My hilarious, kind, and equally inspirational sister Elizabeth (The family scar!). My grandpa for buying me my first guitar. My fluffy epileptic cat Misia. (as well as my lovely past cats Psotka and Hipolit). Chris for your support. To my friends, past and present, too many to list (yeah I sound cool….), thank you so much. To my band – I couldn’t hope for a better group of people to write and share music with.

GEOFF THANKS: My beautiful Mummy & family, my 2nd family: Dannie & the Meloche clan, my 3rd family (the Dirty one) – all for their support + love, all my teachers (including M. C.), Jennie & our loyal strangebird fellowship, John & Daisy: my daily muses, Stephen & Misha: my fan club, and the unstoppable Stagehands for the gifts of music + friendship.

DAVID THANKS: I'd love to thank my mommy, daddy, brother and Samvel Grigorian – Love you guys. Also, Antigen for giving me the crazy idea of learning bass, Kach Vartan Mamigonian, Ninet Alexandrian, Gary Sarkissian, Tara Curnoe and of course all my family and friends.

Thanks for being amazing and helping bringing this music to life.

MACKENZIE THANKS: My family Lynsey, Tim, Tianna, and Sharon (Ma). Wesley, who's love and support can never be matched by another.Thank you to M. Bianchin and those at SLC. For heartbreaks, mistakes, timeless friendships which strengthened and encouraged. Thank you Cara for inspiration. Finally, thank you to my Stagehands family for welcoming me.

NEMANJA THANKS: First and foremost, God. Psych! I would, however, like to thank Ana for reasons that are too many to list, the most important of which is that she's pretty; mia famiglia: Bata, Mama, and Tamara - mlogo vas volem; Ana's family for being supportive, and my family, residents of the old country, for keepin' it real; my peeps (not of the marshmallow variety) from Scarborough and beyond. And finally, a big thanks to the Stagehands - the Voltron of the music world. Love you all.
