GRETA VAN FLEET RETURNS WITH A JOYOUS NEW SINGLE AND MUSIC VIDEO, “MY WAY, SOON” By T.J. It’s been a little over a year since we’ve heard anything from Greta Van Fleet, but now they’re back. Yes, the band that was touted worldwide as a Led Zeppelin clone has just released a new single and a video to go with it. After nearly three years of touring with their debut album, Anthem of the Peaceful Army, which was released in 2018, the band is striking back with a new sound and a new direction. Tired of hearing the comparisons between their band and Led Zeppelin, the band is back to show that they are more than just a Led Zeppelin sound-alike band. Their new single is titled “My Way, Soon” and definitely features a new direction for the band. The song is slated to be included on the band’s new album, which they are currently working on. Last year the band stated that they were going to shed this image that both elevated them to star status, and pidgin-holed them in a narrow field. With the release of “My Way, Soon” they feel that they are well on the way to do that.

Written in more of a shuffle arrangement, the band expresses the transition that they have made from being a teenage garage band to becoming a national touring act. “My Way, Soon” is a real rocker and sounds a bit different from what we’ve been hearing from the band. It displays a more mature sound that is creeping in to be their own, although it is still rooted in that 60s and 70s retro sound that they have become known for. Along with the song comes a new video that is both playful and retro with a look that resembles being filmed from one of those old Super 8 cameras. The video features the band at play with both performance footage and leisure time mixed in showing both their serious side and their playful side. “This song was inspired by what three years of touring did by opening so many doorways. This is my truth, how I feel about all of our travels, but I know it echoes the experiences and changes of perspectives for Jake, Sam, and Danny as well,” explains lead singer Josh Kiszka.
