Dark folk act Greet to unveil »I Know How To Die«, music video for »The Leather Night« out now!
»I Know How To Die« is the debut full-length album from Leeds, UK, based songsmith Greet (aka Matthew Broadley). The enchanting dark folk sound evokes the dynamic, awe-inspiring and untamable landscape found in surrounding county of Yorkshire. Greet blurs the lines of traditional folk and drone, diving further into the worlds between reality and fantasy. Through this is created a wonderfully unique cinematic and doom laden atmosphere.
I know how to die,
Yet I am here still, battle worn,
My purpose not fulfilled.
A song is calling and still,
I am here
»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 & mastering engineer David Campbell and photographer Richard Newby to bring the final vision to life. »I Know How To Die« will be released on October 17th, 2025, on limited edition vinyl via Fiadh Productions in the US.

About Greet:
Through Greet, Matthew Broadley brings to life an ethereal sound through the use of harmonium, intense percussion and powerful droning arrangements. Furthermore, flute, 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. Live shows with One Leg One Eye, Steve Von Till and Ora Cogan have seen Greet mesmerize audiences. In 2025 Greet made an appearance at Roadburn, along with an array of other weird and wonderful folk festivals of the UK, which has led to a fast-growing following.
