Production was done by Bouchelle, along with Stephen DeAcutis (Corey Glover, Cyndi Lauper), Hal B. Selzer (Joan Jett & The Blackhearts), Ed Stasium (Pretenders, Talking Heads), and Earl Cohen (Lady Gaga).
Bouchelle’s previous EP release, Lipstick Tomboy, garnered several million streams and hundreds of thousands of YouTube views. It received airplay on notable Triple A radio stations such as WXPN in Philadelphia, KCSN in Los Angeles, WFUV in New York, and WBJB in New Jersey, as well as on SiriusXM, and was awarded the Disc of The Day prize by legendary MusicRow columnist and tastemaker Robert Oermann. It was featured on the AXS.com website, the M Music and Musicians Magazine website; was the featured monthly video in New Jersey Stage Magazine; and a Top 20 Download on the Daily Play MPE Chart.
Bouchelle has also appeared in a number off-Broadway shows, appeared in an episode of the hit TV show Gossip Girl, and hosts the syndicated TV show Rock Star Kitchen, which is seen twice weekly on The Comcast Network in the mid-Atlantic region of the U.S.
