Album Notes

"Quiet Life" is the first full-length release from Oliver. It was recorded by Stephan Hawkes, Blake McKibben and Robbie Dressler at the temporarily-defunct Clarity Recording Company in Aloha, OR. The studio is not operating right now as they look for a new home, but you can visit their website here.

The album was recorded between January 9 and March 18, 2002. It was then mastered on March 19, 2002 by Ryan Foster at Freq Mastering in Portland, OR. Check out Freq's website here.

The album even featured a couple of guest appearances; some keyboard and vocal work by our friend Damaris Peterson, and some mystery vocals by Robbie Dressler; both formerly of the band Delivery.
