After seeing the death of so many great bands... it's really cool to see the birth of one.

[@GREPGLOBAL]

Iooio you

[@raechelyndawn2580]

The singer does not talk like he sings. I love this band! They are so talented! It is refreshing after being in my teens and twenties in the 70's. I thought good music was gone... not the case with this band.

[@parkviewmo]

Any rock singer who can use the word "axiomatic" in a sentence, uncued, gets my vote! They are charming! Sam is really witty!

[@avalondreaming1433]

parkviewmo Sam is fast becoming by favorite brother.

[@ElleHartStrings]

He looks a bit like Michael Kelso so I just assumed he would be stupid... but he's really not

[@bassjumpblues3631]

This family of fantastic rock and blues men. The have an excellent set of parents that did some very good things with them. They learned to love the craft of music. There are a few key components to a bands success, stage presence and good communication skills or "diplomacy" Like you mentioned.. I love these guy's they had me following at Highway tune.. "We Old Guy's having the musical blood thrive on tradition".

[@deborahcassidymacphail2097]

@@ElleHartStrings Really funny!

[@juliedefee567]

Yeah, these guys have a broad vocabulary. Particularly without College. Reminds me more of Led Zeppelin. In my youth, I would read the lyrics of the Zeppelin songs and look up any words I did not know in the dictionary. Got some of my vocabulary that way. But, seriously! These guys are so very young, still.

[@raymondforcierjr.2837]

These boys are humble and they are gonna make it huge!!! I follow them, their music is in my soul!!!! Love GVF!!!

[@kati1017]

I love how Josh is listening so intently. So intelligent!

[@suewebb8862]

Ever notice Josh looks like a young Bob Dylan and Danny looks like a young Stallone. Sam is so pretty, if he were a girl he would be a super model!!! He is so tall and those legs!! Then there's Jake... he is a cutie. But when he is onstage, crushing it on his guitar, wind blowing his hair, he becomes the epitome of a rock star!!! Love them! Rock on GVF!!! ❤

[@trac3y160]

Sue Webb [please refer to my comment above] as a woman in her mid 60's, i gotta say if i could turn back time, i would be a groupie following these handsome, polite, intellectual, and f'n sexy fellas....they've given me hope for rock and roll in 2019

[@charleypatterson9956]

Well said, Sue Webb!! And I totally agree with you, Trac3y! I'm only 44 years old so I don't really remember good rock and roll when it came out, just the aftermath when I listened to my parents records. GVF really sounds like the old stuff!! I've got a crush on these boys... ^_^

[@Anabellelynnmusic]

Oh my gosh yes I’m still set on marrying Jake or Sammy

[@wuryantobambang7023]

[@RichardFriendartist]

they seem like nice kids. I am excited to see how this all evolves for them. :)

[@astoundinglyawesome3730]

Richard Friend im hopeing they bring back blues rock (also i agree they seem like interesting people)

[@bassjumpblues3631]

The young men are totally worthy of the success. Now three Old Guy's here agree They have everything I am made of and making money.. "Old Guys Rule" ..

[@z.j.gordon5127]

Excellent interview to the amazing and beautiful young men. They are incredible mature for their age!! Also funny, great sense of humor. I love Greta Van Fleet... The New Generation of Good Rock!!!

[@marieo6109]

I love what Sam said that the Blues is an expression of triumph. It is a beautiful genre of music. These young men are just so smart and very professional.

[@getthefvckout6923]

Josh saying "you know?" Is my anthem

[@robincharron5052]

These boys are half polish dad side like me now I don't know what momma is but I fell in love when I first heard them on the radio while ! They are all special ...

[@ladyjedi3D]

Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo yeah!! the saviors of rock! Legends in the making.

[@karenforbes2272]

Beautiful Still photos throughout! Love this a lot!!😍

[@SarahAyJay]

Fantastic interview! These questions are very genuine and much better thought out than any other interview of them I’ve seen

[@BluesMoose]

thanx

[@TR6Telos]

Great interview, what maturity they possess, and stunning photos, wish I had taken them. Regards Greta, from Manchester UK

[@eliana9267]

Amazing interview and Josh have nice voice. Love guys

[@lindsay3995]

Josh's accent is interesting. My mom comes from Michigan and I hear her a bit in his vowels, but I wonder where the rest of it comes from. The other brothers don't seem to have it. Also, my grandpa came from the Nijmegen area, so yay Netherlands! A great interview.

[@me2nmineme243]

Good interview😊, even Dan is inputting! Josh always thinking outside of the box. Really nice photos Dave Van Hout@! Nice...

[@annac2895]

I loved this interview!! Great questions and interviewer, it felt like watching a conversation between friends.

[@BluesMoose]

thanx

[@jayben00]

Best interview yet

[@photographerjonathan]

these guys are going places and I am enjoying watching there journey, but a new rock band is only as popular as there latest song, people are riding high now on the songs from the EP's. but if there new album comes out and doesn't have a song as good as Black Smoke Rising, or any of there popular tracks, there whirlwind of mania could fall apart really fast, so I am really hoping for a great album out of these guys, it's been a long time since the days where you would put on an album and listen to the whole thing from beginning to end, and if loved a band, you couldn't wait to hear there next full album, and see if it's as good, or maybe even better, you wanted to see how they evolved, or if they went backward in a bad way, but nowadays it's all about people downloading one single from one artiest and another single from another artist and making play lists of just singles, and that is a shame, because albums were what was great about rock n roll, and only the best bands would have an album were you liked all the tracks, anyway I would be really happy if GVFleet keep growing and surprising with all there new stuff, and for me personally, I love the Zeppelin influence, I wish every new band would be influenced by the Beatles and Stones and Zeppelin, Who, Doors, and all the great bands from the 60's and 70's, but with there own fresh twist. but a bands sound or style isn't as important as a bands song writing, songs come first

[@whereintrovertsmeet6088]

josh kinda sounds like steven tyler when he talks! love the lisp

[@Purplehazed88]

keely deloache there’s no lisp lmao

[@vondelllyon311]

Cant stop watching everything about these boyz.

[@donhancock332]

I love how the interviewer pronounces Van Fleet.I could NEVER learn to speak dutch!

[@jolovesminnis]

I love this band. They’re are so nice

[@camthemam235]

The blues equates to primal soul connections.

[@dogdrawer]

Excellent - cool wisdom and earnestness. Loved it. You all look great, too!

[@milkamichellevladic7514]

Love this band :)

[@SandraLopez-qw7dd]

I love everything about GVF. They are so talented in every way. I wish them the best in all their future endeavours. GVF rock on .... 🎸🎤🎶🎼🎹🎸When will you come to Albuquerque New Mexico?

[@lindarooer1874]

They're so young and fresh I hope they never subject their self's to drugs or alcohol I followed LED Zeppelin in the 70,s I saw them get bigger and better every year till Bonzo died from acohol. Then it ended please boys stay safe!

[@nana2five790]

Linda Rooer it also got bad when Jimmy Page got wasted on Heroin. Drugs- was their downfall

[@getthefvckout6923]

Let Danny boy speak 😭

JOSH!soooo cute gotta print those man

[@rlin2648]

He's 100% right, compression and some reverb is all you need. It's all you should need.

[@dikhed1983]

The interviewer sounds like Bane.

[@234cheech]

jamming a word hear in the uk thats going exstinct

[@stevesmith3990]

Great interview but please sort the sound out next time.

[@BluesMoose]

Yeah. Steve you are absolutely right. i was gutted when i heared the result and even more more when i discovered that the back-up had failed. It is was the best i could manage to squeeze out of it. But the conversation was too good , interesting and relaxed not to publish it. It won't happen again.

[@theresaheyer537]

dutch people are a little stiff,the guys are grreat!!!!Sam is beautiful!love the stills.

[@audreysweeney5338]

Hope and freedom!

[@sarahtonen4873]

they make me want to be the best mum i can be

[@frge1594]

I like that guys

[@sfc282d]

Not the worst interview apart from the sound which is pretty awful....especially from a radio station !

[@BluesMoose]

yeah, unfortnualy we have to agree Niki. soundwise. we had some troubles luckily we managed to rescue the most and didnt want to withold it for ya.

[@Anabellelynnmusic]

Daniel = most likely to not talk in an interview

[@darrellroeters4951]

Josh needs to come down to earth

[@teresaferreirabarata2477]

CAN SOMEBODY TEACH THAT CAMERAMAN HOW TO FILM?

[@BluesMoose]

Thank for your feedback . We think you are absolutely right. So we send him on 5 year course in Hollywood. he'll be 70 when he is finished But that will teach him. For a radio interview we cannot allow this kind of quality.

[@walterhartland4472]

greta try slide with three slides on fingers or finger tip slides if the y make them different sounds that gits the croud screaming

[@rlin2648]

Very good host in this interview. Bravo to him.

Thnx

Ahhhh whyy does Sam always have the best frickin side profile he’s sooo HOT🥵❤️‍🔥💕😍

pick in slap in bending the strings four different sounds thats the shit greta

[@raelabandt7919]

What

[@xXCrazy1oO]

am I the only one that noticed how thirsty sam was during this interview?

[@charleypatterson9956]

Curly G Yeah, he drank two cups of tea!! ^_^

[@trac3y160]

the more i listen to these guys, i hear a plethora of musical infulences.... not only the classic rock stuff, but for me as well, i hear some 80's vocal stuff.... Sebastian Bach; Axel Rose.... etc these young men are a class act. not only have they been reared with a great education, not only in music, but they are coherently spoken [nothing like what most millennials come off sounding like]; polite; and they are very humble. my hope for them is they remain so true to themselves & what they are achieving, laboring as to the bringing back of basic rock and roll.... btw i am a 63 yo woman who knows good fucking r-n-r simply for the reason of being young in the best decades ever for music.

[@moonmaiden13]

okay boomer

[@sophiarose6169]

Holland natives represent

[@insipid_rhyme350]

Once Jake gets animated and passionate about what he's talking about, you hear the twang in his accent that Josh has. I think over all Jake is more reserved and soft spoken, whereas Josh is the opposite. Perfect example of twins.

[@fishfire_2999]

Something odd about this group , the shape pf there faces , the drummers chin, there tallent , there knowledge of music , what are the chances this is not by design ?

[@moonmaiden13]

what the actual fuck? their CHIN?! All of this talent and all you can talk about is a chin? bye.

[@theresaheyer537]

Sam wil klompen hebben,hoop dat hij een paar gekocht had?

[@BluesMoose]

We hebben twee paar voor ze gekocht (later) !! We bought two pair for them later on!.
