about

Sky Cries Mary vocalist Anisa Romero approached her longtime bandmate, William Bernhard, about recording a version of the classic "Summertime." She cut an a a cappella version of it in her New York apartment and sent it to Bernhard who felt like Romero was singing to her daughter, Petra, and used that to guide him as he shaped their version of the song. To round things out sonically the duo enlisted Sky Cries Mary member Kent Halvorsen and experimentalist Jeff Greinke, whom Romero worked with on her Hana project.

"Summertime" is dedicated to the memory of Joe Skyward.
