Over the past year, Joe Hertler and The Rainbow Seekers have been building buzz across Michigan. With the release of the band’s album On Being, the band has received critical acclaim across the state. All Around Sound referred to the band as “energetic, fun, and [with] a blindsiding wealth of songwriting talent”, and Revue Magazine chimed in on the album, writing “On Being has a timeless sound that will sound great years from now… Hertler is that good”.
