Starting off another week with a brand new edition of Artist Spotlight! Today, we head to Buffalo, NY birthplace of the wings where we come across the ever vibrant sounds of Rust Belt Lights. The band consists of Zach Dietsch on lead vocals, Pat McAndrew on guitar, Cody K. on bass, Tom Mayer on guitar, and Brochure on drums. The band's sound is reminiscent of the DIY movement that I grew up listening to high school, with elements of Brand New and Taking Back Sunday thrown in for good measure to balance the sound out and accentuate the high energy vocals that are present at every turn throughout their music. I found out about them through their recent performance through Audiotree, which has become my go-to source in finding the newest acts that are popping up outside the region, and it has given me a great barometer as to the depth of talent that is just outside the doorstep, and these guys are a perfect example of that diamond in the rough and have that extra spark that sets them apart from the other acts currently entrenched in the scene right now. A terrific up and coming act that is worthy of a spot here on the site. Some recommended tracks to have a listen at include "Haters Get Hated" and "With No Hesitation".
