Dear Life is the fifth studio album by Canadian country music duo High Valley and the group's debut major-label release.

[2] The American track listing for the album features two tracks from the duo's previous album, County Line (2014), in place of two of the newly recorded songs, notably removing the Canadian lead single, "Every Week's Got a Friday" in favour of "Make You Mine".

Following the departure of founding member Bryan Rempel in March 2014, High Valley returned as a duo and released their fourth studio album, County Line in October of that year.

[7] They soon began working on new music for their major-label debut, and had recorded seven of the songs that would make the album's final track listing by May 2016.

[1] The title, cover, and release date of Dear Life were revealed on October 3, 2016.

[16] "She's with Me", previously the top-10 follow-up to "Make You Mine" from County Line in 2015, impacted American country radio on April 17, 2017 as the album's fourth single and second in the United States.
