GRETA VAN FLEET MAKE TRIUMPHANT RETURN TO WORLD STAGE WITH NEW SINGLE AND MUSIC VIDEO

REPUBLIC RECORDS

Following their electrifying and intimate underplay performance at New York City’s legendary Bowery Ballroom earlier this week, GRAMMY® Award-winning rock band Greta Van Fleet officially return with their explosive new single and music video, “Play Your Games” — the first taste of what signals a powerful new chapter for the band.

Recorded and co-produced in Tennessee by the band alongside acclaimed producer Mike Elizondo (Fiona Apple, Turnstile, Sheryl Crow), “Play Your Games” captures Greta Van Fleet at their most raw, irreverent and instinctive. Inspired by one of their oldest demos from the band’s revisited archives, the track channels the spirit of their earliest days — loud, fearless and untamed.

Written by the band, “Play Your Games” leads the charge with swagger, chaos and sharp-edged charm, feeling like a nod to the band’s formative years performing in small clubs in their hometown of Saginaw, Michigan. “The flagship of that song is irreverence,” guitarist Jake Kiszka explains. “It’s this beautiful nature of seizing a moment.”

Accompanied by an official music video directed by Nikola Crnobrnja, the visual further expands the band’s evolving world, marking Greta Van Fleet’s first new music since stepping away from the limelight, offering fans an exciting glimpse into where they are headed next.

The release arrives just days after the band stunned fans and critics with a sweat-drenched, sold-out underplay show at Bowery Ballroom, reigniting anticipation around their return and reminding audiences why Greta Van Fleet remain one of rock music’s most compelling live forces.

“Play Your Games” is out everywhere now.
