The album's name comes from the concept that all of humanity lives under one sky and that, therefore, man cannot operate as a solitary creature. The cover art is a photo taken by Ryan Cohan.

The Ryan Cohan Sextet received a grant from Chamber Music America to compose the suite "One Sky: Tone Poems for Humanity," which makes up the second half of the album.[1][2]

gollark: You know, if we still had get-thing-from-AP-by-code, it'd be a very convenient storage space.

gollark: They mean it's a hatchling of a release so new it doesn't exist - they have "influenced" in the egg description, so it's like with the truffles/muskies.
gollark: Free! Offer all dragons in existence!
gollark: Free! Offer a CB spriter's alt!
