October 31, 2025—The much-anticipated new album from bluegrass-americana veterans Greensky Bluegrass, XXV, is out today via Big Blue Zoo Records/Thirty Tigers—celebrating the exact date of the group’s 25th anniversary; listen HERE.
“We’ve called on some dear friends to breathe a touch of new life into some classic Greensky songs for your listening pleasure,” says dobroist Anders Beck on XXV. “We’ve reinvented the sounds of some of our (dare I say) ‘hits’ because after a quarter century of Greensky Bluegrass, with plenty of new music on the horizon, we believe it's worth celebrating what the five of us have created together… and we want you to have a damn good time listening to it.”
The LP brings together many friends and collaborators of the band throughout their 25-year run—Billy Strings, Sam Bush, Nathaniel Rateliff, Aoife O’Donovan, Lindsay Lou, Holly Bowling and more. Each of these special guests represents chapters of the band’s continued journey.
In celebration of the album, the band also shares an official music video for “In Control” featuring Lindsay Lou, showcasing archival footage across the band’s quarter-century career. Watch the video HERE.
Greensky Bluegrass started at an impromptu show in 2000 in Kalamazoo, Michigan and have developed into a marquee live act and staple in the progressive bluegrass space. They’ll play two special hometown anniversary shows at Wings Event Center in Kalamazoo on October 31 and November 1. The shows will be available to view via Nugs; watch HERE.
Earlier this week, the band confirmed an expansion of their North American tour, with new dates for Spring 2026. New cities include New Orleans, Memphis, Little Rock, Asheville and more. Complete list of dates below. See HERE for tickets and additional information.
For two-and-a-half decades, progressive bluegrass band Greensky Bluegrass—Anders Beck (dobro), Michael Arlen Bont (banjo), Dave Bruzza (guitar), Mike Devol (upright bass), and Paul Hoffman (mandolin)—have become known for their dynamic live performances and extensive touring schedule. With music reflecting their own lives and collective experiences, their songwriting stays true to traditional bluegrass. The band’s die-hard fans travel in droves across the country and pack multiple-night show runs at iconic venues like Red Rocks—where they played their 20th performance earlier this year—and The Ryman.
