Background

It was the Collabro's first album following the departure of Richard Hadfield from the band. They announced their third album would be released in March 2017 having set up their own record label Peak Productions after being dropped by Syco Music. In an interview on Lorraine the band talked about the album and releasing it on their own, "We've had a bit of a break, gone away and we feel that this album we've come back with is our best one yet. It has been brilliant, there's been so much freedom, we've had full artistic control. This is the first album we've done which reflects what we did on BGT which was musical theatre. We've included all the songs on Les Mis, Wicked, Funny Girl and Collabro-fied them."[2]
