St. Vincent (a.k.a. Annie Clark) has her own unique flavor of quirky pop-art-rock. Maybe you could call her Kate Bush for the new millennium? Her sound is more aggressive than Ms. Bush though. Some echoes of Talking Heads on this one, which makes sense given that her previous project (Love This Giant) was a collaboration with David Byrne.

She's a pretty sick guitarist too, though her studio material only hints at it; check out this live performance (great song, and closes with an extended guitar solo):

Great live set. Just her and her acoustic guitar, crisply recorded.

The debut solo album from Mr. Bonamassa. Fantastic blues rock. And yes, he covers the namesake Jethro Tull tune (it's one of the standout tracks): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJ8-WXY6HVU
Oh hey lookee here (just found this), Bonamassa doing a live medley of "A New Day Yesterday" and the closing section of Yes' "Starship Trooper": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWE8EJZ4yiI
And (unfortunately) tying in with my thread about poorly mastered recordings with digital clipping artifcats, this album is pretty bad in that regard. Great music marred by stupid (and entirely avoidable) engineering mistakes really pisses me off.
