"So Close" was one of five singles Andrew McMahon sent out ahead of Zombies on Broadway, his second album under the Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness name; it arrived in January 2017, a few weeks before Vanguard Records released the album on February 10. Gregg Wattenberg and Derek Fuhrmann, the pair McMahon had started writing with on a break from touring his self-titled debut, produced it, with CJ Beren and Ben Romans as co-producers.

The rock pianist made the album between May and September 2016, moving between Los Angeles, New York City and London with a whole roster of producers, and it leans all the way into bright pop and pop rock, close enough to Fun that several reviewers made the comparison. Along with "Fire Escape", "So Close" went on to show up on several Billboard charts.
