Auerbach is all over the track: electric guitar alongside King and Andy Gabbard, mellotron, backing vocals with Gabbard, and a share of the mix with M. Allen Parker, who recorded it. King sings lead and adds acoustic guitar, with Nick Movshon on bass and Chris St. Hilaire on drums and percussion. AllMusic's Stephen Thomas Erlewine noted that the album's originals were written after a bad breakup in 2021.
