In March, lead singer Led Zeppelin, Robert Plant, ironically commented on for Network Ten the similarities between his band and the boys of Greta Van Fleet: "They are Led Zeppelin I". You can see an excerpt from the interview below:
Now, guitarist Jake Kizka responded during an interview with Premier Guitar about what Robert Plant thinks: "I read that statement and it's another one of those episodes to be proud of, when it happens that we meet Elton John or other geniuses, We find ourselves with legends whose albums we grew up in. Listening to them is really motivating, it surprises us and shows us that what we do does not go unnoticed We are honored with the Led Zeppelin comparison [...] We grew up in the midst of many influences. This generation means being a product of the environment we live in. I think we are openly showing what our influences are and not only is Led Zeppelin, there are also influences from The Beatles, all the music of the "British Invasion", American music and We are not shy about saying that the Led Zeppelin have influenced us, we do not hide anything. "
In case you did not know, all members of Greta Van Fleet are in their first 20 years, but you might think they got into a teleportation device from the 70s. The band has been compared many times with Led Zeppelin (just listen the voice of its leader, Josh Kiszka, very similar to Robert Plant's, right?)
