In reference to “Liberty Man,” Williams shares, “’ Liberty Man,’ my latest tune with David Paich, is also a reunion with my Toto bro’s Simon Phillips and Leland Sklar. Also featured are the incredible Mike Landau and of course my partner Steve Lukather! The song is simple. I love open spaces and cherish the freedom to come and go where I will. It’s a swashbuckler in six-eight with a clear Toto vibe!” Both Joseph Williams and Steve Lukather will release solo albums simultaneously on February 26, 2021. Both artists made a significant contribution to the other’s masters.

Williams has previously revealed the video for "Never Saw You Coming."

Joseph Williams’ Denizen Tenant was self-produced outside of “Black Dahlia” and “No Lessons” which were arranged and produced by Jay Gruska and mixed by Dave Way. The musicians and singers who made contributions in the studio read like a who’s who of players that have been in the artist’s life over the past four decades. Amongst these contributors are band-mates from Toto David Paich and Steve Lukather. Simon Phillips, Leland Sklar, Lenny Castro, Nathan East, all of whom enjoyed tenures in Toto are also featured players on the album. Additional contributions include performances by Oscar Bugarin, Jay Gruska, Mike Landau, Barbara Gruska, Steve Overton, Dylan Ronan, Hannah Ruick, Steve Tavaloni, Weston Wilson, Ray Williams, and Mark T. Williams.

The album was produced and mixed at Digbyroad Studios, Sherman Oaks, CA. Denizen Tenant features a dozen new recordings. Amongst these are a cover of The Beatles “If I Fell,” which Williams cites as the one specific song that taught him about the power of harmonies and vocal arrangements. On Peter Gabriel’s “Don’t Give Up,” a very special guest performance is featured in his daughter Hannah laying down a vocal track.
