Composition

"Dear Life" is a Bluegrass-inspired song that features a "percussive" chorus and acoustic verses. The song's lyrics address making choices as one grows up and was inspired by the duo's kids. Drums feature prominently in the song's instrumentation, and "Dear Life"'s production has been compared to Avicii's "Hey Brother", which combines elements of country music with electronic dance music.

Chart performance

"Dear Life" peaked at number five on the Canada Country chart, earning the group their ninth consecutive top-10 single.
