The term "scratch band" refers to a tradition of folk music, Ron Blake explains in his album notes, "performed by storytellers and groove makers in the community I grew up with in the Virgin Islands." The music here isn't reflective of the genre of scratch bands, called quelbe, but "the intention when putting the album together … is. Groove and other elements of music–melody, harmony, & space, imagined without pretense."

Ron Blake - Baritone Saxophone
Reuben Rogers - Bass
John Hadfield - Percussion
