To promote the album, Weezer released a teal velcro wallet available for purchase on their website, with the first 100 copies sold including a dollar bill signed by the band members. The album was released digitally on January 24, 2019, with the physical version planned for release on March 8, 2019. Ĭuomo has since described his use of Spotify's data on most played songs to establish the tracklisting for the album. Several covers on the album have previously been performed live by both the band and frontman Rivers Cuomo at solo shows. Teal was unexpectedly released on January 24, 2019, without prior promotion or advertisement. The cover hit the Billboard Hot 100 and peaked at number one on the Billboard Alternative Songs chart.
After initially releasing a cover of " Rosanna", a different Toto song, as a joke, Weezer released their "Africa" cover in May 2018. Following the release of Weezer's eleventh album Pacific Daydream, an Internet fan campaign was launched to get Weezer to cover " Africa" by Toto.
