In celebration of their much anticipated forthcoming third studio album Starcatcher-due July 21 on Lava/Republic Records-Grammy-winning rock band GRETA VAN FLEET are set to kick off their Starcatcher World Tour July 24 in Nashville at the Bridgestone Arena. The tour, produced by Live Nation, includes stops at the iconic Madison Square Garden in New York and The Forum in Los Angeles as well as London's OVO Arena Wembley and more; see below for a complete list of dates.
Tickets will be available for the Electric Tomb Presale beginning Wednesday, April 19 at 10 AM local time in the U.S. and Europe. Additional presales in the U.S. and Europe will be available throughout the week ahead of the general onsale starting Friday, April 21 at 10 AM local time.
The Starcatcher World Tour will include support from special guests KALEO, SURF CURSE, MT. JOY and BLACK HONEY.
GRETA VAN FLEET will also be touring throughout Europe, starting in Hamburg, Germany on November 6 with further international stops in Paris, Madrid, Amsterdam and more.
The album's first single "Meeting The Master" is out now to extensive critical acclaim; Consequence raves that the song "[digs] deeper into their mythical lore by revisiting concepts from their previous work," while Uproxx notes that ""Meeting the Master" [is] an existential new single on which lead vocalist Josh Kiszka embarks on a spiritual journey." Jambase adds, "the song develops from a beautiful acoustic-tinged number into a bombastic rocker."
The album is written and recorded by the band-lead singer Josh Kiszka, guitarist Jake Kiszka, bassist/keyboardist Sam Kiszka and drummer Danny Wagner-alongside Grammy-winning producer Dave Cobb (Chris Stapleton, Brandi Carlile). Recorded at the legendary RCA Studios in Nashville, the band utilized the large recording room to capture the pure energy of their world-renowned live performances.
"We didn't really have to force or be intense about writing, because everything that happened was very instinctual," Jake says. "If anything, the record is our perspective, and sums up where we are as a group and individually as musicians."
Throughout the ten-song collection the band explores the duality of fantasy versus reality and the contrast between light and darkness. "We had this idea that we wanted to tell these stories to build a universe," says Wagner. "We wanted to introduce characters and motifs and these ideas that would come about here and there throughout our careers through this world."
