Greta Van Fleet and Led Zeppelin
Greta Van Fleet is a relatively new band from Frankenmuth, Michigan to which I was recently exposed. They started in 2017 by three brothers + another, all just in the in teens. Many critics calling them the "New Led Zeppelin." Anyone heard their stuff?

Re: Greta Van Fleet and Led Zeppelin
You just exposed them to me as well.
Wow, I like them. The comparison to Led Zeppelin is right on. Being Michigan raised, I'm surprised I hadn't heard of them until now.

Same here Karen. I had to have some of the die-hard relatives from Michigan tell me about them. Greta's members - all very young kids, but very music-skookum, very talented.

Re: Greta Van Fleet and Led Zeppelin
I was at a pool hall last week where they have a speaker system for music. While waiting to take a shot I heard a song start playing and it immediately caught my attention. I listened for about a minute and asked a friend if it was some unknown or rarely heard Led Zep song. He told me it was a new band Greta Van Fleet. Amazing Zeppelin sound-a-likes with Robert Plant-like screeches and wails.

Re: Greta Van Fleet and Led Zeppelin
Thanks Ray. I was kind of hoping my hearing wasn't belying my age . I hope they can stay true to their sounds - maybe even cut some vinyl! I can't say that Greta is identical to Plant et al, but if your ear tells you that the music is good - like it does to Led Zepp - then I'd say, sit back and enjoy the melody. Besides the voices, guitarist Jake Kiszka, has some talent as evidenced by his guitar riff.
