Greetings from California is the debut studio album by The Madden Brothers, whose members consist of Joel and Benji Madden from pop punk band Good Charlotte, which was released on September 16, 2014, in the United States. The album's first single, "We Are Done", premiered on May 30, 2014, on 102.7 KIIS FM.
