Detroit Trouble delivers blue-collar Detroit blues-rock with grit, soul, and a deep respect for the roots of American rock and roll. Formed in 2015 by frontman Kidd Lightning, the band blends classic blues influences with the hard-driving spirit of Detroit rock, creating a sound that is both timeless and unmistakably Motor City. Their performances feature a powerful mix of original songs and carefully chosen covers, all delivered with tight musicianship, soulful swagger, and the kind of raw authenticity that speaks to the everyday triumphs and struggles of working-class life. Their music struck such a chord with audiences at The PLAT that they’ve been invited back for another appearance. When Detroit Trouble takes the stage here, the room fills with gritty riffs, deep grooves, and an undeniable pulse of live energy—transforming the intimate listening-room atmosphere of The PLAT into a charged, immersive night where every note lands and the crowd rides the music from the first chord to the final encore.
Friday night's opener, Mike Leslie delivers a powerful blend of Detroit rock, blues, and American roots music driven by soulful vocals, gritty guitar work, and high-energy musicianship. Known for their dynamic live performances and jam-band spirit, the group creates a sound that feels both classic and fresh. Their style combines blues-infused grooves with hard-driving rock and roll, filling the room with raw energy and authentic Detroit attitude. At The PLAT, audiences can expect an immersive listening-room experience packed with soul, grit, and unforgettable live music.
