Chile Lime Squid was written and recorded over the last few years at the Treehouse in Phoenix, Arizona. This project was a hell of a lot of fun to do. There were some great days and some not so great days, but all in all we had a great time making these songs come to life. Squiddog wants to sincerely thank Craig Hannay, owner of the Treehouse, who gives us the freedom to create, and who through the years has been a bandmate, friend, and brother. We had some great help from some very good players and a sincere thanks goes to all the musicians listed here who partipated in this project and helped to give it life. You can find the credits below. Thanks to our friends in the Phoenix/Tempe/Scottsdale music scene who continue to inspire us through their work and friendship. We also want to thank our incredible friends who come listen, and our wonderful familes, who continue to love and support us despite the many hours away so we can persue the dream. Thank you all.
