This is just a CD insert mistake; Everything is credited correctly on the Bandcamp page.

I put a lot of thought into trying to make sure everyone got the credit they deserved on this record, and that's why I'm really kicking myself that I didn't catch it when a couple of footnote symbols got lost in the chaos of a last minute scramble to get everything to the printers in time.
  1. Matt recorded himself playing drums in his studio, "Köpfsound Stüdios" for all but three tracks (8, 9, and 13), where I recorded Matt over at Shane Olivo's studio.  Shane did assist a great deal for those 3 tracks.
  2. All the bass guitar was recorded by Keith D in his studio, "The Rathskeller."
  3. For half the songs, I recorded Katherine's violin and viola performances at Shane's.  For the second half of the songs, I recorded her at my office.
  4. I recorded Darcy's horn parts at Shane's. 
All the other credit is appropriately marked in the CD's liner notes.  And this is just a CD insert mistake; Everything is credited correctly on the bandcamp page, both for the album overall, as well as specifics for each individual track.
My apologies to Matt, Keith, and Shane, who deserve better, but are pretty cool people and probably won't care.

I have a collaboration proposal that I hope will resonate with you. I’m seeking video storytellers who want to create videos incorporating my original songs.
Over the last two years, I’ve written and recorded a full-length album for my songwriting project, Maledictis, titled Echoes of Conscience. It features eight tracks blending brass, woodwinds, strings, percussion, keys, and choir—all built on a foundation of alternative rock.
This has been an almost entirely DIY endeavor. Maledictis isn’t a performing band, and streaming revenue is negligible. Many talented creatives donated their time and skills to make it possible. This project has always been about art, not commercial gain. If this resonates with you, let’s collaborate. Your video passion project, featuring my music passion project—we could create something truly unique together.
Thank you for reading, and I hope this finds the right people.
Warmly,
John Marszalkowski
