However, due to tours and other live performances, the recording took place between September 1999 and May 2000. The album was initially recorded at Rockfield Studios , Matrix Studios and Wessex Sound Studios with producer Ken Nelson , although the majority of Parachutes ‘ tracks were recorded at Liverpool ‘s Parr Street Studios (where they used three studio rooms).
