Every so often, a band or an artist comes a long that sounds like they traveled to modern times through a musical time machine to remind everyone what music used to sound like.

Sure, some artists’ sounds can be heavily rooted in the synths of the ’80s or guitar riffs from the ’70s, but think about what Amy Winehouse did with her 2008 album “Back to Black.” Winehouse completely transported listeners back to the sounds of ’60s girl groups and retro vibes.
The same can be said about one of the best new bands touring the country today, Greta Van Fleet. With just a pair of EP’s under their belt and a lead singer who channels the ferociousness of Robert Plant circa 1973, Greta Van Fleet is primed to become rock legends.
Here are five things you need to know about this buzzy band.
Got to see this amazing band again in London the other night. @gretavanfleet blew the roof of my Oscar Party last March. These guys are so talented they take my breath away.

5. A new album is on the way…hopefully: It’s pretty incredible to think that a band with just eight songs out in the world is already scheduled to open up for Guns N Roses, but old and young generations are both obsessing over their music and the hype is real. In an interview with the Metro Times, the band reveals that they haven’t finished their debut album, but aren’t getting a hard push from their label. Their plates are currently full with constant touring until mid-October, so don’t be surprised if you have a wait a little longer for new music from these masterful musicians.
