Everything on the album was recorded in the band rehearsal space in Kearny Mesa, with the exception of the drums, which were done at Black Box Studios. The album was mixed and mastered by Mike Kamoo (drummer of the Loons) at Earthling Studios in La Mesa.
"I guess the story about the album cover art could be considered an interesting one," says Chris Holmes. "My grandfather, Dan Kiley, was a prominent landscape architect, and there's a book devoted to his work. I utilized sketches from the book for the record art. With respect to the album title, it's describing the nature of the songs: introspective, sensitive-guy lyrics paired with bright, jangly, 60s-ish guitars. Hence, Trebly Feelings."
