Two singles, "In the Future" and "Dream a Little Crazy", were released ahead of the album in 2013. Third single "I Might Survive", which Stereogum called "a smooth, percussive, horn-laden disco track", was released on 21 February 2014.[4] A music video for "Dream a Little Crazy" was released on 28 January and depicts what Noisey described as a "biological bakery".[5]

Frontman Cameron Bird stated in March 2014 that the album had been finished for "almost a year".[6] Now + 4eva also includes a cover of the song "When You Walk in the Room",[6] originally written and sung by Jackie DeShannon, but more famously covered by English band The Searchers.

The album received generally mixed, if slightly negative reviews.
