"We were all like everybody else, on lock-down or isolation so I thought maybe we could record this tune together virtually and that's what we did. It was actually pretty cool and I think it came out great! I had to keep it simple but that really works for this song."

​Smile Behind My Mask features Chip and his band The Munks, Brad Shell aka Dr Groove on Drums, Marty Cummings aka Mr Marty on Bass and Greg Aker aka Grego on Whistle. The song was recorded and tracked virtually connecting Groove House Studio, Kensington Ohio, Real Life Studio- Canton, Oh and Improv Studio- Columbiana, Oh all connecting to and tracking in Chip's Nutshell Studio- Columbiana, Oh. Chip explains,
"I wrote this song over a few days, and most of it while watching the daily Covid-19 briefings with Ohio Governor Mike Dewine and Health Director Dr Amy Acton. They were talking a lot about masks and how important it was going to be for all us to be participating. I was just imagining how odd the world was going to look with everyone wearing masks... then I thought if I'm thinking and feeling this way what are kids going to be thinking? I hope this song will help bring a little calm to a potentially scary or anxious situation for children and grownups."
