They include:

Nate Maingard, an Acoustic/Folk artist from I don’t know where. His music is rough and full of passion. You can feel the emotions he is trying to convey with his music, the only problem is the playing isn’t always of the highest quality, I can tell that he’s a pretty good guitarist, but only after listening to most of his songs. He is good, he just needs a little polish.

Josh Woodward, a livewire acoustic rock musician from Ohio. Taking the musical road less traveled, he’s chosen to freely offer his entire collection of over 100 songs on his website. Without pressure to write music that sells, he writes energetic and passionate songs featuring vivid stories and dark humor.

Josh is awesome, he is definitely one of my favorite acoustic/folk artists. He is probably one of most polished and professional of this sort of indie artist that I’ve ever come across, his music sounds awesome, it really does.

Dan Masquelier is the more polished version of Nate Maingard. His passion is evident, his songs beautiful, and his musical skill evident. I really like his music, it’s all quite soft but very well preformed. His bio says that he is a a/v geek, a musician, and a zen inspired nice guy who you should probably be friends with. He certainly looks the part and his music definately sould like a zen-inspired nice guy made it, doesn’t it?

Brooke Miller is a young artist in her twenties (with a lot of skills). For her full bio (which is rather long), can be read at her website and on myspace. She’s from Canada, Prince Edwards Island, where she was raised by musician parents, grew up with music all around her and went on at the age of ten to form a a band to play gigs in the surrounding area.

Scott Andrew is a performing songwriter and guitarist from Seattle WA. He began his music career playing in rock bands in Cleveland OH before moving to the Bay Area and finally to Seattle where he began a solo career. He was also an early participant in the Creative Commons “free culture” movement and continues to release music for free on his website.

Zack David sounds quite a bit like Brad Sucks, if Brad Sucks was an acoustic artist, that is. His music is rather simple but it’s still really good. He appears to be combining electronic musical styles into his acoustic music much like the way Brad Sucks combines some components of electronic music into his rock style music.

Don Ross is a Canadian fingerstyle guitarist noted for the emotion and intensity of his playing as well as his use of extended technique.
