Meltdown’s June Music Challenge – Hometown Artists
What are some of your favorite hometown artists? I’m lucky to live in a town rooted in great bands and artists. Here’s just a few from my collection that I like.
I mean, Ted IS the Motor City Madman! He’s a Detroit guy to the core. Same goes for Alice Cooper. I talked to Alice about a month and a half ago on my Talkin’ Rock podcast and he couldn’t stop talking about Detroit. He recorded his latest album here that’s suppose to come out soon. Here’s a classic from the original band.
A little closer to the 2000’s, it’s Kid Rock. I made friends with him in early 1999 and have been friends ever since. He was kind enough to send me his whole catalogue of albums on vinyl. Here’s a classic from him.
As far as up-and-comers go, Greta Van Fleet is my go-to band. This ep and their album are so good. Can’t wait to hear what they do next.
