The Waiting Sky was produced by Felix McTeigue at a number of studios in Brooklyn, NY including, Salt lands Studio, Strange weather, 802 Media Group (McTeigue's facility) and Friedman's home studio. "The songs emphasize life, loss, and having children, and Felix understood that, "Friedman says. McTeigue also understood the type of subtle and sophisticated band interplay needed to dynamically match each song's powerful poignancy. In addition to Friedman's live Rhythm section of Jim Toscano and Lee Marvin and stellar background vocalist Grace McLean, McTeigue augmented the sessions with such A-list players as Larry Campbell (Bob Dylan, Levon Helm), Byron Isaacs (Levon Helm), Tony Leone (Ollabelle), Jason Crosby (Susan Tedeschi, Phil Lesh) Dawn Landes (Hem) and up and coming Americana/Folk duo, Ari and Mia (who are in fact Friedman's nieces). There are also appearances by Roger's two older brothers. David on harmonica and Lev on background vocals.
