Face The Fire

Considering all the emotion contained within it, Face the Fire came together at a breakneck pace. For three weeks this past winter, Chamuel and her collaborators, Tyler Duncan and Theo Katzman – college pals and My Dear Disco band members – holed up in Chamuel’s home, building the album from musical nuggets each had brought to the sessions. The trio alchemizes several genres from across the history of music – spanning from 80's pop (“Rock It”) and melodic house (“Weight of the World”) to VHS-infused reggae (“Money”). All songs written, recorded, and produced by M. Chamuel, T. Duncan, and T. Katzman additional writing on“Money” by Tom Stoepker, and Tomek Miernowski Michelle Chamuel - lead vocals, background vocals, additional keys/programming Tyler Duncan - sound design, programming, keys, additional background vocals/guitar/percussion Theo Katzman - drums, guitar, bass, percussion, additional background vocals Mike Shea, Julian Allen, Joe Dart, Jack Stratton, and Woody Goss - additional background vocals head engineer - Tyler Duncan vocal producer - Michelle Chamuel mixing (tracks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6) - Tyler Duncan mixing (tracks 5, 7, 8, 9, 10) - Devin Kerr mastering - Devin Kerr executive producer - Michelle Chamuel photography - Andrew C.
