Eaglesmith, Fred
A blend of rock, folk, and country compared to Guy Clark, Steve Earle, and Joe Ely. With his band the Flying Squirrels, Eaglesmith goes for a loose, rootsy, energetic sound that's a welcome departure from slick folk-pop.

Earle, Steve
Earle has made a legendary comeback to be better than ever.

A blues soul with a rock sensibility packed into an acoustic guitar. No one writes better about unrequited love and hard times.

Edwards, Jonathan
Veteran folk/rocker's 1971 million-selling song "Sunshine" ("go away today...") brought him instant fame, but he's made a more lasting contribution to folk-pop and bluegrass.

Forbert, Steve
This smart folk-rocker made waves in the 80's - still shakes it up. Site includes discography, lyrics, tour schedule, and on-line ordering.

Franke, Bob
One of the folk scene's elder statesmen. Especially in his early work, Franke's religious faith illuminates the realm of human love and social issues. "Hard Love," "For Real," and "Thanksgiving Eve" (original version) are classics.
