On April 27, 2017, OneRepublic lead vocalist and principal songwriter Ryan Tedder published a Facebook post revealing the band’s future in releasing new material. In the post, he stated that he dealt with ” crippling anxiety ” and became ill due to constant touring, recording, and promoting the band’s releases. He clarified that OneRepublic would release “new music as often as humanly possible… monthly, weekly sometimes”, departing from the typical album cycle system. Singles they released in 2017 included ” No Vacancy “, ” Truth to Power “, ” Rich Love “, and “Born to Race”. In September 2017, Tedder stated at a concert that the band had started work on their fifth studio album that was due to be released sometime in 2018. He estimated that there would be 7–8 songs on the album. Also, they featured on Kygo ‘s song ” Stranger Things ” for his second studio album Kids in Love , released in 2017.
