Background

On April 21, 2022, It was announced that MacFarlane would release his new album the following month. [3] MacFarlane collaborated with Andrew Cottee again, after previously working on his fifth album Once in a While . He recorded the album at Abbey Road Studios, making it his sixth time recording at the studio. [4] MacFarlane said on collaborating with Cottee again, "I have long been a fan of Andrew Cottee's supremely artful and buoyant orchestrations," MacFarlane tells Variety. "So after our last collaboration, 'Once in A While,' a ballad-themed record, I really wanted to hear what he could do with an up-tempo album." Cottee also said on working with him, "Cottee speaks in terms of raising the bar. "This is the album I've always wanted to make. The chance to collaborate with an artist like Seth MacFarlane and work with such a high calibre of players is a dream for any arranger." MacFarlane and Cottee wrote an original song for the album, "Unless I Do It All With You". [3]
