One of New York City’s finest indie-rock bands, The Rad Trads are currently on tour promoting their vibrant sophomore LP titled &#8220;On Tap.&#8221; This album features the feel-good banger &#8220;Good Luck Unto Ya&#8221; which seems to pull stylistically from the greats like The Band, The Grateful Dead, Bob Dylan and even Tom Petty at times. The instrumentation, featuring a strong horn section, really adds to the songwriting which already comes across as very high-end and brilliant. The song gallops along during the verses and comes to a catchy hook chorus that is delivered with fortitude and becomes contagious by the songs end. The song can be heard on <a href="https://open.spotify.com/album/63QuIaYHUFUA8shkbYn9sh?si=Lm0_kG-AQMii_mLgZMcBbw">Spotify</a> and also through a great music video via YouTube:</p>

<h3 style="text-align:center;"><em><span style="color:#339966;">I wrote the song about cutting off from a toxic friend, but it means something different to me every night I sing it on tour. I have this one friend who passed away last year I think about a lot&#8230; he was a major badass and I like to think he went out with a blaze of glory, his way, and declared so to the world by being the way he was. Other times I feel like I’m saying goodbye to some part of myself- a part I’ve never liked or always struggled with. That feels good too.<br />
