“When Tim Bergling passed away on April 20, 2018, he was close to completing a new album,” a family statement read.”He left behind a collection of nearly finished songs, along with notes, email conversations and text messages about the music.”
The family continued: “The songwriters that Tim was collaborating with on this album have continued the process to get as close to his vision as possible. Since Tim’s passing, the family decided not to keep the music locked away — instead they wanted to share it with his fans all around the world.”
