It is the first album without former guitarist Richie Sambora, who left the band in 2013. According to Jon Bon Jovi, the album serves as a "fan record" to tie in with an accompanying international tour: "It’s songs that weren’t finished, that were finished, a couple of new ones like the one we released as a single "We Don't Run". Burning Bridges will be followed by the band's fourteenth studio album in 2016.
