Solace by Xavier Rudd is an awesome album. John Butler Trio is also very good. Haven't heard of much of the other stuff tho but will check it out.

Other quality artist of a similar genre to the above two - jack johnson, donovan frankeinreiter n ben harper

anybody checked this shit out yet. ben lee makes sick music for waking up in the moring. petep murray can take the panties off any girl, and the rest of it is just super chill. except for eskimo joe, thirsty mec, and powder finger, they lean a little more toward the rock side of things.
