Lambert and Stapleton co-wrote "A Song to Sing" with Jenee Fleenor and Jesse Frasure,and it was produced by Dave Cobb.[3] The bones of the track were first begun in 2023,when Frasure and Fleenor created musical beds for a 1970s disco-inspired track,and it developed into a full-fledged song when Frasure played the groove for Lambert and Stapleton when they met with him at his studio to write.[4] They sat on the song for several years after writing it,before finally cutting it in 2024 with Cobb in Savannah,Georgia at the Georgia Mae Studio,[5] and it was finally finished when engineer Tom Elmhirst,affiliated with New York’s Electric Lady Studios,mixed it in 2025.[4] Though Lambert and Stapleton have written and performed songs together before,this song marks their first recorded duet together.[3] The song draws inspiration from classic country duets,namely "Islands in the Stream" by Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers.[5]
