Background
People Music is the second album for McBride's band Inside Straight. The album comes nearly four years after the band's debut record, Kind of Brown. The present album features eight original compositions, four of which were written by McBride. His originals include the composition “New Hope’s Angel” written when Whitney Houston died. The core group performed six tracks; the other two pieces were recorded by a slightly different lineup.[8]

Reception
Jeff Tamarkin of Jazz Times noted "Following a one-off big-band outing, this is his second with Inside Straight, the acoustic quintet he formed in 2009. Like that year’s Kind of Brown, People Music feels like a mental reboot, an opportunity for McBride to call the shots on his own terms with some handpicked compadres".[9]
Corey Brown of Notreble said "The new album finds the quintet in hard-swing mode, delivering what they call “more road-tested, ‘lived-in’ Inside Straight” in an accessible way, and one that makes the audience part of the experience."[8]
