2016 best new guitar oriented music


As a fan of guitar oriented music, particularly from the 80's, I am always looking for new artists. I am looking forward to 2017 releases from established artists the Feelies and the Dream Syndicate Yesterday I read an interview with Steve Wynn of Dream Syndicate fame. In the article, he listed several of his favorite releases of 2016.Fortunately, I was not familiar with several of them and now have a nice shopping list. I already had:
Drive-By Truckers- American Band
Day of the Dead compilation set
and am familiar with Alejandro Escoverdo. His new album Burn Something... ,produced by Peter Buck, sounds like it is going to be his best release in years.
The new artists for me are:
Ryley Walker- Golden Sings.....
Steve Gunn- Eyes on the Lines
William Tyler- Modern Country
Chris Forsyth and the Solar Hotel Band- Rarity of Experience 
I have listened to several cuts on youtube and have ordered all of them.
Happy New Year and stay thirsty for new music my friends....
