Greta Van Fleet have shared the new song “Farewell for Now.” The track appears on the Michigan rock band’s upcoming third studio album, Starcatcher, out July 21 via Lava/Republic Records.
“On ‘Farewell for Now,’ we express the sentiment of our longing to stay on stage and savor the magic created by the audience-music phenomena,” bassist Sam Kiszka said in a statement. “But we must pack up and go to the next place to do it all over again; as always, we’ll be back soon.”
“Farewell for Now” shows Greta Van Fleet’s softer side in a very retro-sounding ballad. The song follows the releases of previous Starcatcher singles “Meeting the Master” and “Sacred the Thread.”
