Can you recommend me an artist that's similar to Bob Dylan?

Doesn't necessarily have to be folkish, but I'm looking for somebody who manages to conjure up that same feeling you get when listening to Dylan.

Richard Thompson is a great guitarist and a terrible lyricist, literally the opposite of Bob Dylan.

>>122425677
coldplay. both's lyrics are platitudes.

Bob admits it himself:

>I fuss with my hair and I fight blood feuds

Just listen to his records. These are the top 25 best or so. They're all great.
>>122427490
He's not a terrible lyricist whatsoever
>>
>>122428228
Actually Richard Thompson has a very grating voice. Bob Dylan is a much better singer.

>>122428282
He fucking is. Sentimental mush with absolute cringe lyrics. His only good songs are Beeswing and 1952 Vincent Black Lightning, and even then the lyrics are pretty cringe.

>Split into the two separate camps of “some guys who got it down” and “secret heroes”, Dylan included some of pop culture's heavyweights in his illustrious list. In the former, he named Leonard Cohen, Lou Reed and Northern Irish folk icon Paul Brady. In the latter were John Prine, David Allen Coe and Tom Waits

Check out Benjamin Reichwald's stuff. Closest thing I've found and Dylan is my favorite artist of all time.

The Mountain Goats.

Based Banhart enjoyer. Best song posted here in months. OP should also check out Banhart’s cover of Townes Van Zandt’s “Colorado Girl” and then dive into the whole TVZ catalog.
>>
>>122438359
I sat through him playing his bullshit music in Glasgow 2020 or 2021, I can’t recall. Besides those two songs it’s all garbage with nice guitar playing.
>>
>>122442460
Listen to the albums. The best are Unhalfbricking, I Want to See the Bright Lights Tonight, Shoot Out the Lights and Liege & Lief, but they're all great. If you don't like him after listening to those four, fair enough, but you should give them a chance.
>>122428282

John Prine is the gentle gentile Bob Dylan.
>>
Phil ochs is better imo
>>
>>122429947
you should listen to some good catholic artists for a change
