Greet Death on grief, personal change, and finding connection through music.
Music Coast sits down with Harper Boyhtari and Logan Gaval at Riot Fest 2026 in Chicago to explore Die In Love and the experiences that shaped its songs.
Harper and Logan discuss writing about losing people they love, balancing intimate vocals with heavy distortion, and trusting their shared instincts when a song needs to get quiet—or turn everything up.
We also explore the familiar-but-unsettling feeling behind “Same But Different Now,” the years of writing that went into “Country Girl,” and how that song took on new meaning for Harper through personal change.
From bringing vulnerable songs to a festival stage to hearing that their music helped someone through a difficult time, this conversation looks at the human connection behind Greet Death’s sound.
