Illinois is Stevens' second based on a U.S. state—part of a planned series of fifty that began with the 2003 album Michigan and that Stevens has since acknowledged was a joke. It was adapted into a musical, Illinoise , in 2023 and, after playing smaller venues, opened at the St. James Theatre on Broadway in April 2024.
Beginning with the album, Stevens announced his intent to write an album for each of the 50 U.S. states, which he termed the Fifty States Project. Following the release of Michigan , Stevens compiled a collection of songs recorded previously into a side project, the album Seven Swans , which was released in March 2004.
