Just entering their late twenties, the Kiszka brothers and Danny Wagner are already adding a third LP to their discography, which began five years ago with the Black Smoke Rising EP. At the time, critics were divided. Some spoke of a pale copy of Led Zeppelin destined to be pigeonholed as caricatures, or just fizzle out, while others marvelled at the potential of this well-crafted 70s blues-rock revival, made credible by Josh’s (a Robert Plant look-alike) powerful voice. It has to be said that high-pitched voices this powerful, that hold steady at such extreme altitudes, aren’t a dime a dozen. What’s doubly impressive is that they don't often come from fledgling 18 year old musicians.

Since then, the Michigan quartet have proved the early critics wrong. Greta Van Fleet has now earned stadiums and the approval of idols, including Plant himself. Written and recorded in Nashville, Starcatcher is produced by Dave Cobb (Chris Stapleton, Brandi Carlisle, Jason Isbell & The 400 Unit), a regular at the Grammy Awards in the country and Americana category. But the Americans have not changed tack. Here we find the hard rock DNA that has always guided them, with a few other welcome sensibilities, like the folk lulls of Farewell for Now, the blues harmonica of The Falling Sky and the urgency of Runaway Blues. "We didn't really have to force ourselves or be demanding when it came to writing, because it all happened very instinctively. The album represents our point of view, and sums up how we feel as a group of musicians”, says Jake, the guitarist and twin brother to Josh. © Charlotte Saintoin/Qobuz
