The album was recorded at and named for the sessions recorded at Globe Recording Studio in New York owned by Robert FitzSimons and Tracey Loggia. In 2019 it was announced that the 2008 fire that swept through Universal Studios Hollywood ultimately destroyed buildings belonging to Universal Music Group. It was initially reported that The Globe Sessions was one of hundreds of albums to have had their studio masters completely destroyed. However, in a 2022 interview with The Line of Best Fit, this was revealed to be false, with Crow stating that "luckily, they found most of mine in a different area."
