Yawning Sons/WaterWays is a split extended play by the collaborative musical projects Yawning Sons and WaterWays. It was released on December 24, 2010, by SpaceAge & Cheesecake Records. The EP is the second release from Yawning Sons, following up on their debut studio album Ceremony to the Sunset, and received generally positive reviews from music critics.[1][2][3][4][5]
Following the release of Ceremony to the Sunset, Gary Arce of Yawning Sons went back to the studio at the request of Linda Perry to record a series of tracks with fellow Yawning Sons member Mario Lalli and Fatso Jetson's Tony Tornay at the Donner and Blitzen Studio in Los Angeles. California.[6] The new tracks formed part of a new band called WaterWays, which, together with Arce, Lalli and Tornay, featured Abby Travis on vocals for a selection of tracks.[7]
WaterWays contributed two tracks, whose genre they describe as "aqua beat surf rock", towards the split. At the same time, Yawning Sons re-recorded and expanded one of the "Garden Sessions" outtakes from their Ceremony to the Sunset studio sessions.[5] The tracks were mastered at Abbey Road Studios in London.[8]
