The Deluxe Edition of Native includes 5 bonus tracks in an exclusive collectible package.
Native was mostly recorded at lead singer/songwriter/keyboardist and GRAMMY® winner Ryan Tedder's Patriot Studios in Denver. Produced by Tedder and fellow band mate Brent Kutzle, OneRepublic also collaborated with leading-edge producers like Philippe Zdar (the French composer known for his work with artists like Phoenix, The Beastie Boys, Cat Power, and Depeche Mode), Jeff Bhasker (Kanye West, Jay Z, the Rolling Stones, fun.) and Benny Blanco (Maroon 5, Rihanna, Gym Class Heroes) infusing their high-powered rock-pop hybrid with elements of electronic music, gospel, blues, and folk.

Native is the third full-length album by Onerepublic. Lead singer Ryan Tedder, one of the most sought after songwriters today, has penned and produced hit singles for the likes of Leona Lewis, Beyonce, Jordin Sparks, Kelly Clarkson, Jennifer Lopez and Natasha Bedingfield.

После двухлетнего успеха на MySpace, где OneRepublic находилась в топе исполнителей, группа выпустила дебютный альбом, который получил статус Платинового в США. Первый сингл «Apologize» вышел в первоначальном виде в ремиксе Тимбалэнда. Песня «Tyrant» вошла в саундтрек фильма "Последняя песня".
