Greta Van Fleet Drops New Song, “The Falling Sky,” Ahead of Starcatcher Album Release
Grammy-winning rock band Greta Van Fleet is back with their latest track “The Falling Sky,” which is debuting on Apple Music 1’s “The Zane Lowe Show.” The band also shares the live performance video for the track filmed at their Sacramento show on the Dreams in Gold Tour in March. This new track is part of the highly anticipated forthcoming third studio album “Starcatcher,” set to release on July 21 on Lava/Republic Records.
The band explores the duality of fantasy versus reality and the contrast between light and darkness throughout the ten-song collection. The album is written and recorded by the band, alongside Grammy-winning producer Dave Cobb, at the legendary RCA Studios in Nashville, where they utilized the large recording room to capture the pure energy of their world-renowned live performances.
In celebration of the new album, the band is launching a new puzzle box and offering several vinyl variants, including an exclusive black glitter vinyl, a red glitter vinyl exclusive to Target, and an opaque vinyl available at select record stores across the country.
The Starcatcher World Tour, produced by Live Nation, is set to kick off on July 24 in Nashville at the Bridgestone Arena and includes stops at iconic venues such as Madison Square Garden in New York and The Forum in Los Angeles as well as London’s OVO Arena Wembley and more. The tour includes 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.
With over one million tickets sold worldwide, the band is best known for their renowned live performances. They sold out their entire 2022 arena tour, holding a special energy between them and their devoted fans. With “Starcatcher,” the band aims to capture that energy in the recording studio.
