Fans excited to see Greta Van Fleet’s Starcatcher World Tour concert Tuesday were left disappointed when the show was abruptly canceled. In a video message shared with fans, the rock band – consisting of twins Josh and Jake Kiszka, Sam Kiszka, Danny Wagner – announced that their Tuesday performance The Orion Amphitheater in at Huntsville, Alabama was postponed due to severe weather in the area.
“Hello, Huntsville. Due to the persistent tornado watch, and in the interest of safety, the building, the venue, cannot open tonight. And so we’ll have to postpone tonight’s show,” Josh told fans. “The venue is in fact available tomorrow, so we will be performing tomorrow, May 9. We apologize for any inconvenience that this has caused. Unfortunately, this is out of our hands, but we hope everyone stays safe tonight.”
