The ladies are best known for their '70s glam meets '60s garage rock sound, and their outfits help demonstrate the relationship. Often described as "Josie and the Pussycats meets KISS," the Platforms take all the good parts of Kinks-ish rock, Blondie-inspired sass and all the Angus strut a handful of ladies can possibly muster to deliver chunky, old-school rock'n'roll that's sure to get you movin'. "Hot Little Ride" might be the most intelligently designed reformation of a typically male-owned metaphor. Her motor is running fellas, it's time for you to go for a ride. Take that, Springsteen.

They'll be performing with the Dirty Hearts hot off the release of their latest, Pigs.
