Other than Ember’s response, most mentioned so far are out of the business of releasing new music.

Of artists still releasing music, U2 is on my list. So are Radiohead, Elbow, The War on Drugs, The Choir, Kings of Leon, Temples, Stryper (yes they are still at it and they still do hair metal better than anyone-it’s a guilty pleasure), Ulrich Schauss, Beck, Allison Krauss and all the members of Union Station, Stevie Wonder, Snarky Puppy, Vulfpeck, Andrew Peterson, Coldplay, Switchfoot,
