Foster the People began promoting new music following extensive touring in support of their sophomore studio album, Supermodel (2014), in late 2016. The band performed three brand new songs, entitled "Pay the Man", "Lotus Eater", and "Doing it for the Money", at Rocking the Daisies Music Festival, announcing that they would release their third studio album. On April 5, 2017, the band announced a headlining summer tour in North America in support of the album.

The band released the three-track III (EP) on April 27, 2017. It is composed of three brand new tracks, "Pay the Man", Doing it for the Money", and "SHC", all of which appear on Sacred Hearts Club. Each song was accompanied with a visual music video uploaded on the band's official Vevo channel. Sacred Hearts Club was formally announced on June 13, 2017, with the premiere of an online short documentary revealing the album's title and release date. A formal lead single, entitled "Loyal Like Sid & Nancy", was released to digital download on June 30, 2017.
