Connick Jr. created the album in his home
studio during the pandemic, playing all the instruments,
recording all background vocals and doing the engineering. The
singer said the process acted as therapy during uncertain times.
"This was a case where the music itself was actually helping me
get through this time, and that's really rare," he said.
The New Orleans native described the 13-track project as a mix
of Christian and faith-based songs intended for those who need
help accessing their faith to get them through the last year.
Connick said the album, released earlier this month, is an
honest look at how most people navigated life during quarantine.
"This is a really truthful look at what I, and I think a lot of
other people who might listen to it, are going through and just,
just went through," he said.
