- Finneas, who won 6 Grammys for his work on Billie Eilish's debut album, teamed up with the Attacca Quartet to create the haunting classical-inspired score for 'Disclaimer', a process that went on to influence Eilish's latest album.
- The Attacca Quartet, who were initially hesitant to work with the arranger David Campbell, were thrilled to get the call to collaborate on 'Disclaimer' alongside Finneas, Cate Blanchett, Sacha Baron Cohen, and director Alfonso Cuarón, a project they say revived their appreciation for a Christmas single they had worked on the year prior.
