Greta Van Fleet

Greta Van Fleet has cemented their status as one of the most in-demand live rock acts of their generation, having sold more than one million tickets worldwide with over 250 sold-out shows to date across five continents—including selling out every one of their headlining shows for the past two years. Buoyed by this incredible support, when it came time for the band to record their
third full-length album, Starcatcher, the quartet decided to track the music live in order to capture the energy and immediacy of their performances and build on the momentum of the past few years.

This recording approach was a departure from the meticulous way Greta Van Fleet made their 2021 sophomore release, The Battle at Garden’s Gate. But the Grammy-winning Nashville based rock band—Josh Kiszka (vocals); his twin brother, Jake Kiszka (guitar); their younger brother Sam Kiszka (bass/keyboards); and friend Danny Wagner (drums)—knew Starcatcher would benefit
from a looser vibe based around instinct and chance. Their songwriting had matured and they were better musicians, for starters.
Even as they kept their eyes firmly toward the
future, they realized they felt drawn to their earliest days as a band, when they were determined teenagers honing their sound in Frankenmuth, Michigan.

Starcatcher’s production—helmed by Grammy winner Dave Cobb (Chris Stapleton, Brandi Carlile, Jason Isbell)—is more stripped-down than that of The Battle at Garden’s Gate, allowing the instrumentation to shine.
