Song is from forthcoming Starcatcher album
Greta Van Fleet has debuted their new track “Farewell For Now.” The song is the latest track to be unveiled from the band’s highly anticipated forthcoming third studio album, Starcatcher, due July 21st on Lava/Republic Records. The new track follows the release of “Meeting The Master” and “Sacred The Thread.”
“On ‘Farewell For Now’ we express the sentiment of our longing to stay on stage and savor the magic created by the audience-music phenomena,” notes bassist Sam Kiszka. “But we must pack up and go to the next place to do it all over again; as always, we’ll be back soon.”
Additionally, the band is launching another new vinyl variant—an exclusive black glitter vinyl. The band is also offering a red glitter vinyl, exclusive to Target, as well as an opaque vinyl available at select record stores across the country.
In celebration of the new music, the band is set to kick off their Starcatcher World Tour on July 24th 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. The Starcatcher World 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 6th with further international stops in Paris, Madrid, Amsterdam and more.
Starcatcher 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.
Starcatcher follows their acclaimed sophomore album The Battle at Garden’s Gate, released in 2021 to extensive chart and critical success. The album debuted at No. 1 Billboard Rock Album, No. 1 Billboard Hard Rock Album, No. 1 Billboard Vinyl Album, No. 2 Billboard Top Album Sales and in the Top 10 on the Billboard 200. Their From The Fires EP, released in 2017, won Best Rock Album at the 61st Grammy Awards.
