Indie spotlight for November 12, 2017 (Show 171)

Greta Van Fleet is a modern rock & roll band rooted in the genre's strongest traditions: super-sized hooks, raw riffage and the sweeping vocals of a front man who was born to wail. These guys aren't revivalists; they're looking ahead, breathing new life into a sound that's blasted out of car dashboards and living room stereos for decades.     @GretaVanFleet

RatRod is the brainchild of Mike Smith and Mark McCarty. Two Philadelphia area musicians who have a true love and respect for old-school rock and roll. But, rock-n-roll and R&B as passed through the conduit of Australian stalwarts AC/DC, Rose Tattoo, The Angels, Jet, and Airbourne.           @ratrodrocks
