Hi all,

Joe Videtto - asking for some 'modern' artist and song recommendations.

I'm 51 years old - like all styles (except "pop country") - and grew up with favorite artists that were rock-based (every form classic, pop, progressive). Also loved the big-name pop stars played on the radio as well as singer-songwriter types (Billy Joel, Elton John, Simon and Garfunkel, James Taylor, Eagles).

I'm about to start giving guitar lessons to younger folks, and I'd like to find some new artists so I don't feel like a relic.

I'm 51 - and of course good music is good music. But I'm thinking if you're closer in age to me (within 10 or 15 years), new artists that you like would also be more likely to fit in my taste also.

No restrictions - please share any artists or particular songs that are less than 10 years old and who you really enjoy listening to.
