The album is a further collaboration between Jason Mraz and the members of indie-rock-folk band Raining Jane: Mai Bloomfield, Becky Gebhardt, Chaska Potter and Mona Tavakoli, with whom Mraz has been working since 2007, and who were his backing band on his previous album Yes!.[6] The band returns to back him on Know and helped in writing a number of songs as well. The album peaked at number 9 on the US Billboard 200 chart.
