13 June 2018 (Toronto, ON) - Armed with a combined 75-million Spotify plays, 17.8-million YouTube views of the band’s debut #1 single “Highway Tune,” and all previously announced 2018 North American dates long-sold out, today the four-piece rock band GRETA VAN FLEET announces a slew of new headline and festival dates that will bring the band’s high-energy, rock’n’roll swagger to global concert venues throughout the fall. Details on the Canadian dates listed below with tickets for these dates going on sale this Friday, June 15 at 10AM local time - go to www.gretavanfleet.com/tour for more information.
Over the past year, the band - twins Jake (guitars) and Josh (vocals) Kiszka (22), younger brother Sam (19) on bass and keys, and long-time family friend and drummer Danny Wagner (19) - has been captivating audiences with its blend of bluesy, big-riffed rock-n-roll. Rolling Stone recentlly cited the band as one of the 20 creative visionaries whose work will help define the future, and that they are “making rock & roll cool again for a younger demographic.”
Recording has wrapped on Greta Van Fleet’s debut album which will be released later this year through Lava/Republic Records later this year. The band is currently on a sold-out headline tour of England and Europe that includes appearances at major rock festivals in Germany, Denmark, the UK, Paris and the Netherlands. Greta Van Fleet’s 2018 itinerary also includes major Japanese rock festivals as well as appearances here in the U.S. at Lollapalooza, the Panorama Music and Arts Festival in New York, Virginia’s Floyd Fest, and Summerfest in Milwaukee.
