Snuffy Walden and Jonathan Richards) wanted to record the updated versions,[4] and four new songs, before a live audience.

[5][6] Martin Diller (drums), Andrew Kesler (keys), Alex Nester (vocals) and Mollie Weaver (vocals) also perform on twentytwenty.

[7] In addition to the four music videos released as singles,[8] Niemietz created twelve podcasts documenting the progression of each rendition of the songs.
