Kay Hanley (formerly of Letters to Cleo- about to release her 2nd solo record in January) is the greatest singer and songwriter the world will ever know. I could not say enough good things about her. Wow.

I love T&S,too- they don't collaborate on songwriting and record most of their lead and backing vocals alone, so I'd say they're a good fit on your list. ;)

Eric Clapton, Don Henley, Paul McCartney, Greg Allman.

Morissey and Dallas Green.
