Greta Van Fleet’s Unlikely Evolution

November 4, 2026 · 1 h 15 min

Show notes

Since moving from their native Michigan to Nashville in 2020, Greta Van Fleet have become a vital part of an exciting new Nashville rock scene. All four members of the group — singer Josh Kiszka, guitarist Jake Kiszka, bassist Sam Kiszka, and drummer Daniel Wagner — join us on Nashville Now to talk about their unlikely evolution from a band indebted to classic rock to flag-wavers for an eclectic 21st century sound. They talk about recording their new album, Palace for the People, the changing faces they’ve seen in their audience, and reveal what they think listeners get wrong about Greta Van Fleet. They even break out the harmonica. It’s a glimpse into Nashville’s role as a rock town, through the eyes of a dynamic young group.
