Gratiot Lake Road

The husband-wife duo of Gratiot Lake Road takes folk to a new level by putting an indie spin on it. Earthy guitar and bluesy banjo mixes with harmonizing vocals to create a simple yet satisfying mix. “Chicago,” a song on their debut album Stamp Sand Shores, has evocative banjo with a mix of unique vocals that sounds like a traditional indie folk tune. Their unique mix of ankle percussion, closed-back banjo, and guitar is a relaxing alternative to today's conventional indie folk. (Wintucky)
