The Greeting Committee

at The Independent (8pm)
The Greeting Committee with Toledo

Comprised of Addie Sartino and Pierce Turcotte, joined by Noah Spencer and Micah Ritchie, the spirit of purposeful sharing has served as something of a lifeline for Kansas City band The Greeting Committee.

After making their Harvest debut with the Meeting People Is Easy EP in 2017 and the subsequent release of This Is It, the band spent much of the years to follow on the road, with sold-out headline shows in major markets such as Chicago, Austin, New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco. To date, they've toured with the likes of Bombay Bicycle Club, Tennis, Hippo Campus, and Rainbow Kitten Surprise and taken the stage at leading festivals like Lollapalooza and SXSW, in addition to delivering the I'm Afraid I'm Not Angry EP in late 2019 and appearing in Netflix's To All the Boys: Always and Forever in 2021. The band's sophomore album 'Dandelion' is out now via Harvest/Capitol Records with a deluxe edition, including tracks with Briston Maroney and Tune-Yards. Sartino and Turcotte are currently working on the band's next project.

For a decade, Nashville-based band The Greeting Committee has proven theirknack for storytelling. Now, with the release of their third studio album "Everyone's Gone and I Know I'm The Cause," they have a lot to get off their chests. Since garnering 100+ million global streams and a dedicated fanbase, the band,which now consists of founding members Addie Sartino and Pierce Turcotte, longtime member Noah Spencer, and newcomer Micah Ritchie has gone from strength to strength. They've opened for the likes of Bombay Bicycle Club and Hippocampus, while selling out headline shows across America and simultaneously releasing acclaimed albums, including 2018's "This Is It" and 2022's "Dandelion" which garnered support from Billboard, The Washington Post, NYLON and more. With "Everyone's Gone and I Know I'm The Cause," an album born amid grief and loss, Sartino and Turcotte are meticulously balancing vulnerability and self-reflection -- all wrapped up in 10 tracks that include the lead single "popmoneyhits." "I was afraid if I didn't hold tightly enough, if I didn't struggle enough, if I didn't sacrifice enough that I wouldn't be enough," says Sartino on the process of making of their third album. "And if I couldn't be enough then how could I ever deserve this? But I promise you, the things and the people that are meant for you will always believe you are enough."
