Just feels like the genre (if it is one) that has taken a critical hit recently, thanks to Ed Sheeran, Ben Howard, Jake Bugg etc. so I thought we should highlight how many good acts are still recording. Inspired by Bill Callahan's gorgeous New album, so...

Bill Callahan
The Mountain Goats
Sharon Von Etten
Joanna Newsom
The Tallest Man on Earth
Cat Power
Sun Kil Moon
PJ Harvey

Just to start us off
