Chesney announced the album's title and tracklist in March 2020. At the time of the announcement, the project had already produced two singles: "Tip of My Tongue" and the title track. The album is Chesney's second for Warner Records Nashville.[1] Chesney co-produced the album with longtime producer Buddy Cannon. Of the songwriters chosen for the album, Chesney said that he wanted to "bring a lot of [his] favorite writers together" to tie into the album's central theme of "how different people are around the world, yet how entirely similar they can be".[2]
