Greensky Bluegrass' "Congratulations & Condolences" examines the complexities of life with raw, unfettered honesty. The track serves as a b-side from their most recent record, Stress Dreams.

Co-written by Greensky Bluegrass' frontman/mandolin player Paul Hoffman and Joshua Davis (known for Steppin' In It and Shout Sister Shout), the mid-tempo ditty draws its inspiration from real-life. Davis lost his father and witnessed the birth of his son days apart, two life events that could not be more different. The song delicately details how unexpected life can really be.

In the song, Hoffman opens up the song to tell a tale about a fractured friendship. "I can't recall falling out / Just a slow burn, a shade of doubt," sings Hoffman. "But I'm hoping we can stay close without the past catching up / I hear you're doing awful well / I try to understand and tell you I'm proud of your success and stuff."

The accompanying video, shot and edited by Dylan Langille, was filmed on 8mm and invites the viewer into the studio for the song's creation. Among their catalog, "Congratulations & Condolences" is one of their most earnest cuts.

“Greensky is and always has been very unique in our world. We put our love, energy, and focus into what we appreciate about our music," Hoffman says in a statement. "We come together as a band in a way that’s organic. We take a lot of pride in how we grow and challenge each other too. We’re maturing together. I think we get more Greensky all of the time.”
