My main genre I’m passionate about is 60’s/70’s/80’s rock. I also love outlaw style country, Jam music and metal (maiden, Metallica’s first 5, Tool, Sabbath). I need upbeat, sometimes aggressive, great musicianship.

Seems the “classic rock band” has gone by the wayside. Thank god Neil Young is still around.
 
Eh. Tough times for a rock fan. Only relatively new band I thoroughly enjoy is Royal Blood. They are interesting imo.

Not new and definitely not easily accessible but if you stick with it you will be rewarded with the choicest aged wine on the planet.

The Grateful Dead.
 
The Tea Party. They got pretty big outside of Canada but were yuge up here.

Jeff Martin is a modern day Jim Morrison.

I disagree. Sure rock is no longer prominent on the radio, but there are thousands of outstanding rock bands these days. I find someone new to listen to almost on a daily basis.

Radio Moscow?


Assuming you already Jack White + his projects? (Dead Weather, Raconteurs, White Stripes

Colter Wall?
 
The Record Company is a newish band with an older rock sound.





Also, based on what you're into if you're not an Umphrey's McGee fan, you should be



 
Maybe Trivium

At least check out this solo


I'm assuming you've heard of Greta Van Fleet



Can't go wrong with the Foo (Fighters).
