When he emerged in 2017, with his devastating singles “Highway Tune” and “Safari Song”, the Greta Van Fleet had to overcome public distrust due to his association with the Led Zeppelin. A good seven years have passed since their global debut and finally the band enjoys a moment in which they can fearlessly show their full potential.
Promoting “Starcatcher”, their third studio album, brothers Josh, Jake and Sam Kiszka, alongside drummer Danny Wagner, arrived at Lollapalooza Brasil as headliners of the Samsung Galaxy Stage, welcomed by a true legion of fans, who competed for spaces to see a great presentation.
Starting energetically with “The Falling Sky” and “Safari Song”, the Greta Van Fleet showed that he would deliver a memorable concert. The guys sent “Built By Nations” and Danny added a beautiful guitar solo. Enough time for Josh to change his costume and start “Black Smoke Rising”, a song in which he took the opportunity to show all his vocal power live.
Afterwards, Josh led the audience into a mesmerizing intro to “Meeting the Master”. With “Heat Above” and “Light My Love” played next, the group already had the audience in their hands and delivered a good part of their repertoire.
But the show was a big band, and the Greta Van Fleet there was much more to show the Brazilian public. They sandwiched the hit “Highway Tune” between the new track “The Archer”, including a monumental guitar solo from Jake, and “When The Curtain Falls”, closing the performance in which the group showed that it has a loyal audience, great songs and a striking stage presence. An incredible show to close the third day of Lollapalooza Brazil.
