Prior to the album's release, McCreery was signed to Mercury Nashville, and was dropped after "Southern Belle", the intended lead single to a third Mercury album, failed to reach Top 40 on the country music charts.[1] McCreery released the song "Five More Minutes" in 2016, when he was not signed to a record label. Due to the song gaining airplay on Bobby Bones' radio show, "Five More Minutes" gained in popularity and led to McCreery signing with Triple Tigers.[2][3] In early 2018, "Five More Minutes" became McCreery's first No 1 hit on the Billboard Country Airplay charts. "This Is It" was released as the album's second single in May 2018,[3] and became his second No. 1 hit on the Country Airplay chart. "In Between" was released as the album's third single on April 1, 2019.[4][5][6]
Aaron Eshuis, Derek Wells, and Frank Rogers produced the album, and McCreery co-wrote every song on it.[3]
Rating it four out of five stars, Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic thought that it was McCreery's "best album yet". He also praised the influences of 1990s country music, and thought that the album showed a maturity over the singer's Mercury albums.[1] Sounds Like Nashville writer Cillea Houghton reviewed the album with favor, stating that it "isn’t a stark difference from his past projects, and it doesn’t have to be, acting more like an extension of what made fans love him in the first place."[7]
Seasons Change debuted at number seven on the US Billboard 200 with 40,000 album-equivalent units, of which 34,000 were pure album sales.[8] It is McCreery's fourth US top 10 album.[8] The album has sold 97,800 copies in the US as of August 2019.[9]
