For this project, the singer-songwriter took a different approach by choosing more songs that he didn't pen himself. "I've had 16 songs in a row on country radio that I've written or co-written," Dierks tells The Boot. "That's not a streak that I'm going for. I have so many friends in the songwriting community and so many musicians in this town that I respect, that I wanted to record as many outside songs as possible and hopefully have one of those songs be a single for somebody else. To have six songs on this record that were written by other writers is a source of pride for me. I'm excited for them."
