Help me find some music/artists.

Hey guys. Once again I'm looking for music and/or YouTube videos. I'm getting into some solo acoustic and possibly, yet unlikely, duo stuff, and I'm looking for examples. I'm really interested in examples that showcase a singer playing acoustic guitar performance. Extras like harmonica or second guitarist are OK too. Most genres are OK too. Rock, country, blues, singer/songwriter, and maybe a little folk. Videos are ideal, but I'll take what I can get. You guys always come through, and I'm looking forward to your posts!

there are some other instruments going on in this, but you can hear how good it is as a solo acoustic song from the clip:

We do this song full band, and I've done it solo acoustic. It's a fun one!

Here's a topical folk song probably as relevant as when it was written decades ago.

The perfect blues song imo...



The good sense song ('cause it just ain't that common).



Couldn't decide on the best breakup song so here's two...

Of course, there are thousands of songs simple enough to play on an acoustic while singing. There's almost the entire Jim Croce catalogue, a bunch of James Taylor songs, a whole lot of John Denver, and a dozen or so Gordon Lightfoot songs. Then there's about a hundred years of country/folk songs to choose from.
Find a book of acoustic guitar songs, and you're on your way.
