Greta Van Fleet "Black Smoke Rising" (EXCLUSIVE Performance!)

[@geoffsimpkins7650]

So cool their drummer plays acoustic. They’re in for the long haul

[@raymondwilliams9509]

He played acoustic before drums, he learned drums to be in the band I believe.

[@Wrennyyy]

I agree with you, it's a pleasure seeing him play!

[@j.s.8496]

And "drummer" can PLAY !!!

[@KimJohnstonRadioPersonality]

And he doesn’t just contribute on acoustic, he DELIVERS!

[@tylerparker3024]

Its easy

[@NassiveMutts]

Sometimes I hear zepplin, sometimes i hear a little Rush, always i hear greatness when listening to Greta Van Fleet! They are one of a kind and amazing!!!

[@XxSypherxX91]

When you know the sound man has never heard of back up vocals

[@GuppyCzar]

It doesn't even sound like the mic was hot. Really poor job by their sound guy.

[@MarkWorthen]

Damn, you got that right. The backing vocals are an important aspect of the song.

[@billkropp]

HAHAHAHA

[@XxSypherxX91]

@Thomas Reginald @Bill Kropp Interesting. I’ve been using the Cockie of Gracissity.

[@codeviolation69]

Basically only Josh and Jake. Missed out big time.

[@juweee_yt]

*THIS BAND IS SO PHENOMENAL!!!*

[@flamingosalad3541]

Frodo got some pipes.

[@Andge121]

FlamingoSalad pippin

[@thegreatstapley]

FlamingoSalad They come in pipes? I'm gettin' one!

[@hdhbdbj9408]

FlamingoSalad Her name is Greta you idiot

[@aideiainvest]

lolol

[@tash5540]

Josh probably has the widest vocal range of all singers today. He can talk low, sing high and still maintain an amazing tone. People only dislike because they're jealous.

[@geol1936]

3:15 all the way to 3:38 - Josh's note - wow.

[@Broshare1]

Geo L That gave me cancer. Sounds like a cat in heat who wants to also be robert plant

[@geol1936]

Shane S. He he he. You could look at it that way, and I won't argue. There's power in Josh's vocals. Imo, I too think Plant's voice is better. Going bavk 40 years, some of my friends didn't like Geddy Lee's voice, or even Rik Emmett's voice. I liked voice in all different ranges, if it flowed with the music. The early clips of Josh's voice is a stark comparison to today's version. He wasn't as high in pitch. Check out the recent posting of their early '12-'14 material if you haven't listened to it yet.

[@sfb4577]

Awesome

[@vincent7203]

Geo L as we speak about Rik Emmet and geddy lee i just wanna say that think Riks voice is better hate me all you want

[@geol1936]

Dredge hate you? Jeez, we're just shootin'the breeze about music. Rik's voice is still terrific. Of course, he cannot hit the high notes like he used to, but he gets close enough. I'm going to see Rik for the 9th time solo this Sept. Rik and Dave Dunlap are great duo guitar show.

[@Free-flyBE]

real musicians not afraid to unplug!

[@HamiltonRb]

I'm with you on this. From Clapton to Neil Young to Nirvana and others that have done unplugged, I really love an acoustic set sometimes

[@geol1936]

3 speed Sting-Ray they are plugged in playing acoustic guitars. I do like when artists play acoustic sets. One of my favorite live shows was when Govt Mule did one of their rare live acoustic first sets before blasting into a hard rocking second set. It was on a quiet, snowy evening, so the somber mood was already set.

[@markosvafeas]

they're all plugged in...

[@markosvafeas]

Jackson Miller ahahah yeah yeah i'm joking

[@m.c.9991]

Fuck off to all the haters.

[@Sam-gb3lw]

Those guitar harmonies were awesome

[@mikefrank6319]

Sam1973. Those guitar harmonies, as well as the riffs are as rudimentary as it gets. Fans who tout the musicality of these beginners do not know what they are talking about.Compare their ability to what the dinosaur rockers had when they were this age, and you are left with a garage band that has a cool singer.

[@Sam-gb3lw]

Mike Frank Less is more. As technology and skill advances with music, it’s more than refreshing to hear a mainstream band actually playing guitar.- Be it simple or not; it sounds cool.

[@mikefrank6319]

Sam 1973.True enough.These guys have something, and that is enough these days. Neil Peart once said, You don't have be a virtuoso to make a great song or have a great groove.But sometimes when you ascribe to the kiss ( keep it simple stupid) formula you sometimes end up with love (leave out virtually everything). Glad there are many kinds of music to enjoy. Cheers. I was in ninth grade in 1973.

[@sandrawluv]

I love hearing what Sammy is doing in the background its just so beautiful

[@auroojkhan2332]

Was skeptical at first to see the drummer and bassist also playing guitars but..... holy shit that was amazing. Those guitar harmonies and THOSE VOCALS :O Too good.

[@alexc7857]

Aurooj Khan omfg i didn't even realise the drummer was on guitar lmao

[@thezeek2745]

Sam plays bass guitar and keyboards.

[@gazzzza]

the bass player is what i really think what holds it all together , just looking him playing bass you know that he was a guitar player before holding down the bass possy , correct me if i am wrong he also plays key boards?

[@EdithLiera]

I love when they play this stripped down, acoustic version. Such talented guys!

[@yLeprechaun]

Just badass. Only just discovered them a couple months ago. There is just not nearly enuff Greta Van Fleet in the World yet. My favorite band, hands down

[@TheAznChild911]

those mics are horrendous, what a shame, they deserve better

[@andrewm8063]

TheAznChild911 I like the sound. It's different

[@mamanazwisko2087]

Można Was słuchać bez przerwy. Brawo 😊😊😊

[@RandyColby]

Nah. It's more a mixture of mic placement and mixing board skills.

[@Alex-pc7kl]

Definitely, probably an issue of poor mixing too

[@eddt430]

I've been waiting nearly 25 years for a band like this to come along. I thought they never would. These guys are something else.

[@solthepurplewiz]

dude, they are amazing, there's nothing to complain

[@josebustamante9182]

Milton Lucas only not proper mic set up but nothing at their end

[@tannernagrone]

1:28 damn Danny, that's some juice right there

[@guacamole8964]

wow...the gifted drummer is an accomplished guitarist too

[@cindyinnew]

He played guitar first when he was young. Then picked up the drums and decided he liked drumming better

[@josephlauricella9646]

3:15 to 3:36 are you kidding me?!??!? These guys are so good it’s scary

[@stormchaser1971]

They are hands down the most talented young band out there.

[@issacwentzel5130]

Brian Stewart Ever heard of the Wentzel Brothers Band? They are younger than Greta Van Fleet, but less popular. They have some good 70s rock sounding originals.

[@Craigdub45]

Issac Wentzel when you forget to switch accounts before you plug ur own band

[@issacwentzel5130]

Chris F 😂😂😂 I thought nobody would notice

[@geol1936]

@@issacwentzel5130 love self promotion. Gotta have confidence to persevere. Good luck to you and your band.

[@FCBayernKiller95]

Dont forget about kaleo pls :)

[@becca1115]

I think theyre great. So much potential. I hope for at least 7 albums.

[@jeffb5785]

I am happy to see a young band like these guys making it, I have a son that worked his tail off to make it and just never got there. He had high hopes and I had high hopes for him. He plays several instruments and wrote his own music and lyrics, many I thought were radio worthy. I am sure many really good and worthy bands don't get there but I am happy to see these guys doing it. I stumbled on them while looking for video's of The Revivalists and glad I did.

[@_yxng.salad_8454]

Sam rocking them Jerusalem b.c 11's

[@jojoheartspaypay]

Acoustic guitars. This really is an all out time machine. And that wail. Someone shake me. It's the seventies all over again.

[@JtOrem]

Give that mans Mic some reverb Jesus Christ they mix him so dry his voice is to good for that its not punk vocals throw some shit on them vox bro

[@lukeGGlee]

J.t. Orem yea some acoustics or effects woulda been nice

[@benscott8747]

Weirdly I do think this shows he's more than capable to pull it off still just my opinion but I do agree with your statement too! :P

[@FloridaManRacer]

He likes to sing with no effects to display his vocal ability from what I've heard. It's a personal preference, but I agree. he could use just a touch of reverb to fill out the sound.

[@johnmanion6463]

Yeah, totally. A little bit of the cat scratch fever, say.

[@JtOrem]

Ben Scott oh for sure he can do it but I mean we already know he can he doesn't have really a whole lot more to prove put some effects on it'll make it a better experience for us the listener I'm not saying T-Pain auto-tune just something to fill it out

[@LTD-7]

We are witnessing the beginning of a music machine that will be around for a very long time, never stop guys your all 4 awesome and we love your music! THANK YOU!!!

[@redbag2458]

I'm listening to you everyday, I'm addicted I love this!!! From Poland

[@terrifendley2761]

They are amazing!!! Sound Wonderful live and that’s RARE!!!

[@tasinallb]

Love watching and hearing them . .too bad the sound is not mic'd properly

[@esotericed8736]

Great guitarists.

[@karenforbes2272]

I could listen to this forever

[@paulkhederchah8228]

Each member thinks for the other and that's one of the great things between way others

[@williamfilipovich833]

Spectacular band! & AWESOME LIVE PERFORMANCES! 3 Nights sold out in DETROIT! Cant wait till the FOX THEATER!!! There is no denying the multiple talents these 4 young musicians possess! ✌

[@vincenzospezzano6912]

Great acoustic version of that beautiful song!

[@mtr212milan]

but what the fuck happens at 3:15? !! the note remains held, harmonic and stable for 15 seconds. this guy is a phenomenon!

[@jonnymiglioreli1483]

Top Top Top... I cried whatching this guys!! Awesome!!!

[@DrAwesome2570]

3:15 held that for 32 seconds. insane.

[@syrinx8311]

Vocals started off a little eh for me, but the second verse onward they all absolutely crushed it. Excellent job boys

[@vegetablebatman69]

Brian Wright Jr he chose to sing it that way. Its live it doesnt have to be exactly like the studio recording

[@laserteeth8191]

He only was checking his vocals and to the second verse it was calculated the micro

[@mariocouture1596]

Simply amazing. Love these guys. So talented. All great musicians including the drummer who joins the crew with a guitar on this amazing acoustic performance. Awesome. May you all have a great career.

[@dianeknowlton5410]

Perfect! You rock on GVF! Love your new tunes as well. In Michigan, hoping to catch a show soon......keep on keeping on guys!

[@ThatTattooGuyOfficial]

This is deffinatly my favorite song of theirs

[@rebeccabennett3786]

[@dylanhoggard5723]

this guy can sing his ass off, definitely robert plant and actually kinda reminds me of geddy lee from rush, these guys are awesome

[@MsKGB1]

[@troymitchell5975]

[@georgemorley5926]

From Australia , love these guys , Peace from down under.

[@ollealve9443]

Such fucking bullshit when people talk about how they miss classic rock in todays music scene - then go on to bash such a pristine band like GvF. This is the healthiest thing to have ever happened to modern music....

[@jameswarriner1369]

Nice vocals man! Wish I could get the chance to actual meet and watch you live! What a true spirit. True band right there!

[@joeyp1636]

Great new band hope they continue the good work

[@s.u.6198]

GREAT ! What a feeling for Music !!!

[@robertcooney1938]

I love this acoustic version.

[@anthonyrogers2424]

Really nice sound. Love the vocal.

[@masterzombie161]

You can see how nervous this guy was in the beginning of the video, but he nailed it. They all are brilliant, this is a band i respect for the new generation. Respect to Detroit.🤘

[@scottfaudree7201]

They are so good. I needed to hear this. I was born in the 80 s and this takes me back.

[@frankhuff120]

They are Great!!!!

[@toddrannbartley1684]

The acoustic version will always be most favorite version hands down. The guitar work is so amazing 🤩

[@kickinbackinOC]

00:19 "Crap, I'm a bassist, what do I do here?" Just kidding bro! I love you guys! Most kick ass band I've heard in years! Wish you all lots of success!

[@wintersherry9867]

Radio.com did not have any more microphones to better hear backing vocals

[@tasinallb]

winter cherry I agree, maybe a sound check. The guitars are louder than Josh & Can't Jake or Danny at all.

[@zeenabrown6293]

so good, i just wish the other boys’ backup vocals were mic’d better!

[@patrickisirish]

Killed it !

[@kimgee9]

I got chills when Josh went so High Lol Beautiful

[@markhancock7527]

What a voice & great guitar playing.

[@jessicayeich7396]

beautiful note carried from 3;17 - 3:37 crazy skill

[@billkropp]

This tune cooks when it is done on acoustic guitar. The original recording with electric guitars is the shit. But when these guys do this with acoustics the tune COOKS.

[@lucianoribeiro9527]

Amazing!

[@autumnbaker6794]

So amazing

[@Zoso7227]

Room full of talent!

[@marianotorrejon1733]

Awesome !!!!!!..........

[@stonerwitch4629]

i’m high asf and came back to this video and i’m geeking out the way the background vocal mics are mute and watching them sing into it bro lmfao the mixing guy did them dirty lmao

[@Jjweeks01]

Say what you want. They are impressive as he'll. Can't deny the talents they continue to display.

[@garydavidh9511]

This band is for real, so what the singer has some touches of Robert Plant, that's the way it comes out. Can you do it? He has a powerful voice, he's not trying to sound like anyone but himself. Josh has the gift!

[@elenasimonazzi2079]

Pure Talent!

[@ryanhoward3028]

3:18 when you’re eating Pizza Rolls but you didn’t wait for them to cool down

[@geraldoandrade9766]

Essa banda é muito top

[@elijahshanor896]

The overlaying guitar work and style along with the combined background vocals subtly- off and on- reminds me of CSNY. It's an amazing sound and feeling that they create. I hope they fully explore it.. 4:14
