Get ready for a heavy dose of nostalgia and swing! Multihyphenate entertainer Seth MacFarlane is officially stepping into Jim Henson’s magical world with his upcoming cover album, Seth MacFarlane Sings The Muppets. Set to drop on September 18, 2026, via Verve Records and Republic Records, this 14-track record bridges MacFarlane’s signature traditional pop/jazz style with some of the most beloved tunes in puppet history.
What to Expect From the Album
Known just as well for his powerhouse jazz vocals and Grammy-nominated music career as he is for creating Family Guy, MacFarlane is paying tribute to an iconic pop culture songbook. The project features orchestral arrangements and classic numbers pulled straight from legendary silver-screen outings like The Muppet Movie, The Great Muppet Caper, and The Muppets Take Manhattan, alongside nods to The Muppet Show and Sesame Street.
The album was initially highlighted for fans during a special presentation at the D23 Expo, featuring appearances alongside songwriting legend Paul Williams.
