Slightly Stoopid inspires a collective and community based atmosphere conducive to everyday life, as well as their art. Embracing the art of collaboration, the band is often joined by an arsenal of guests both on stage and in the studio. Special guest appearances on this LP include Ali Campbell (UB40), Alborosie, G. Love, Chali 2na (Jurassic 5), Don Carlos, Yellowman, Sly Dunbar (Sly and Robbie) and more.
Everyday Life, Everyday People was inspired by the band’s hometown, Ocean Beach/San Diego, CA. To bring the vibe of their hometown visually, the band worked with friend and renowned artist Jay Alders who hand painted the cover art for Everyday Life, Everyday People. Alders is widely known for his surf art paintings.

It was produced by Slightly Stoopid, James M. Wisner, George Spits (LlamaBeats), Michael “Miguel” Happoldt, Jerry Wonda, Colin “Bulby” York.
