Greta Van Fleet to play Detroit in biggest home state concert to date

Michigan rock band Greta Van Fleet is throwing its biggest home state party to date.

The Frankenmuth quartet will perform at Little Caesars Arena on Sept. 8, reps for the group announced Tuesday.

Tickets for the show go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday via Ticketmaster channels. Pre-sales start at 10 a.m. Wednesday.

The concert is part of the Frankenmuth outfit's 19-date U.S. tour behind its third studio album, "Starcatcher." The 10-track album, the follow-up to 2021's "The Battle at Garden's Gate," is due out July 21.

Reno, Nev. rockers Surf Curse, whose song "Freaks" has racked up nearly 750 million plays on Spotify, will open.

The show, the band's first at Little Caesars Arena, will mark the band's biggest concert to date in Michigan.

The band had planned to kick off its 2022 tour with five Michigan concerts, dotting the state with shows in Kalamazoo, Grand Rapids, Saginaw, Flint and Ypsilanti. But the final two shows of the run were shelved after illness postponed the tour, and the makeup dates were eventually scrubbed from the band's schedule.
