This record is largely based in songwriting on acoustic guitar, although the first and last songs are piano-driven as with plenty of Josh's earlier albums. "Give" is a song which began in the 2000s and finally found its voice during production of this record.
The album was developed amidst/following Josh recording with both Iggy Pop & Elton John (in collaboration with Brandi Carlile), whom he has also performed with a few times along with former Red Hot Chili Peppers bandmate Chad Smith. Josh had also toured and written with Jane's Addiction & Pearl Jam during 2023–2024, the latter of which he has been a touring member since 2021.https://orgmusic.com/products/a-drop-in-the-ocean?variant=45892219175073
