Greta Van Fleet shares new single Heat Above!
Hot on the heels of the band’s fifth #1 at rock radio, My Way, Soon, GRAMMY-award winning rock band Greta Van Fleet shares a dazzling new single, Heat Above. It’s the third song released from their forthcoming sophomore studio album The Battle at Garden’s Gate (due out on April 16th via Lava/Republic Records).
In just three years Greta Van Fleet went from touring the grimy rock bars of Detroit and Saginaw to headlining shows on five continents with audiences triple their hometown’s population. The band that once attracted crowds of teens to improvised forest concerts, have now sold over one million tickets worldwide.
The band’s upcoming album, The Battle at Garden’s Gate, produced by Greg Kurstin (Paul McCartney, Foo Fighters, Adele), is a reflection of their journey into the present. With string orchestras, explorative songs, and the band building a visual story with every track, it has an elevated elegance unseen yet from the young band. It explores the boundaries of the group’s artistry, with physical copies of the record featuring a stunning 16-page booklet full of mythical, transcendent visuals and metaphysical symbols for each track.
Heat Above is an ethereal song that opens with a Hammond B3 seeping in slowly to set the tone for a triumphant sonic build. It was debuted on The Zane Lowe Show via Apple Music 1 in an interview where Greta Van Fleet discussed what it was like to work with a new producer, the personal growth they’ve seen over the last three years, and where in the world they’ve been in the extended downtime away from touring.
