Just wonedering if anyone could reccommend some good modern folk/singer songwriter (to listen to) who goes solo, with no band.?
I just think its a pretty rare thing nowadays with all the music editing and popular producing that goes on.

Try Tommy Emmanuel if you haven`t heard him already. In my opinion he is the best contemporary acoustic guitarist in the game. He has a lot of live stuff on you tube you can check out before you go buy an album.

Jack Johnson
Teddy Gieger
some older Steve Earl stuff
Honestly Jack Johnson's stuff is pretty pure. But I'll warn you, most of his stuff is done on a Classical guitar, not a "Bluegrass/Country" guitar. You can tell because of the sound of the nylon strings he uses. (It's a Martin if you're wondering)

I have to agree with Scott T ... Tommy Emmanuel is by far the greatest acoustic living legend today. Google his name, visit his site and check out his albums. Well worth getting one or two of his DVD's to see how he plays!

Elliot Smith was pretty good, but if you want something a bit wilder, type the name 'Michael Hedges' into Google. AMAZING!

Rob Lamothe.. no doubt one of the most talented ever!!! He is exactly what you are looking for but in that case you probably already listen to him.

Andy Mckee
It's instrumental stuff, but he's fantastic (have a look on youtube).
