Guest appearances include brother and fellow Meter Art Neville (Organ) Ivan Neville (Organ), Ian Neville (Guitar), Tab Benoit (Guitar), Waylon Thibodeaux (Washboard) and Jumpin Johnny Sansone on harmonica. The sessions were recorded in Brooklyn NY, Austin TX, Houma LA & New Orleans LA. Half the songs on are original material co-written by Cyril with the perspective of an outspoken advocate, from his work with Amnesty International on Human Rights, to the plight of Louisiana s dissipating Wetlands. The new release churns up a lifetime of musical influences & passions; blues, funk and soul. Producer/musician Brian J of The Pimps of Joytime is at the helm of most production chores by playing most of the instruments to recording and writing with Cyril.
