We Are (stylized in all caps) is the eighth studio album by American musician Jon Batiste. It was released on Verve Records on March 19, 2021.
Background
Batiste began working on the album in the Fall 2019, making it in his dressing room over six days in September and finishing it by Spring 2020. While largely written and recorded prior to the events of 2020, the album's lyrical and thematic content reflects such events as the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic and his involvement in 2020 leading Black Lives Matter protests in New York after the killings of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor.
On June 12, 2020, he released the single "We Are", featuring the band from his New Orleans alma mater, the St. Augustine High School Marching 100.
The album also features Mavis Staples, Zadie Smith, PJ Morton, and Trombone Shorty.
Speaking to Atwood Magazine, Batiste described We Are as " a representation of genreless music that’s just about the story" and "a culmination of my life to this point."
