We sincerely thank our friends and fellow travelers Filippos Fassoulas, Christoforos Alexiou and Christos Danas for their cooperation in the foundational forming of the band. We would also like to thank Ahos Studio and Vasiliki Gergou for their valuable support throughout these years.

And most of all we would like to thank all our friends around Greece for their support and hospitality and especially our families for their support since day one.

We hope you will enjoy listening to this album as much as we enjoyed recording it.
