Harper Boyhtari (Greet Death)

Harper Boyhtari joins the show to talk about Greet Death's new record Die In Love arriving June 27th via Deathwish Inc. I am very excited to bring this conversation with one of my favorite bands going. Harper and I get into the start of her and Gaval's songwriting partnership, her connection to Chicago, finding your voice and choosing the right words as a songwriter, Neil Young, Blink-182, Death Cab for Cutie, Jason Molina, and much more

From the jump when I discovered 2019's New Hell I was hooked with Greet Death's depressive distortion brought deeper with the vocal tag team of Harper Boyhtari and Logan Gaval. Greet Death knows how to take the listener on a journey, opting for asymmetrical song structures rather than repeating hooks. Three records in and Greet Death is taking their love for folk rockers like Neil Young to the next level, remaining noisy and heartfelt. Die In Love is a record of contrasts, its bright moments help to define the light from the dark. It might be their happiest record yet, but Greet Death is only giving a smirk.
