UK-based dark folk songsmith Greet (aka Matthew Broadley) has presented "The Leather Knight", the second single from his debut full-length, I Know How To Die, set for release on 17 October on limited edition vinyl via Fiadh Productions in the USA.
The enchanting dark folk sound evokes the dynamic, awe-inspiring and untamable landscape found in the surrounding county of Yorkshire. Greet blurs the lines of traditional folk and drone, diving further into the worlds between reality and fantasy. Through this, a wonderfully unique cinematic and doom-laden atmosphere arises.
I Know How To Die was written and self-recorded at Matthew's humble home surroundings in Leeds, UK, over the early months of 2025, with additional violin by Simon Barr on "Eulogy" and poem reading by Steve Von Till on "Keening". Working in close collaboration once again with mix and mastering engineer David Campbell and photographer Richard Newby to bring the final vision to life.
Through Greet, Matthew Broadley brings to life an ethereal sound through the use of harmonium, intense percussion and powerful droning arrangements. Furthermore, flutes, bells, strings and guitars act as sonic agents transporting between realms of battles, taverns and woodlands.
Greet emerged in 2024 and released two EPs, Harmonium 1 and Harmonium 2, in the same year via Fiadh Productions. Link
