Despite being on the look-out of the next great song, there’s always enough opportunity and time to revisit the albums that really got me. Guitar is hands-down my favorite instrument and so the majority of this list features different kinds of guitar driven music paired with alluring to gorgeous vocals, interesting lyrics and everything else that is important to create a compelling album. ### 10 – [The Lulls](https://www.facebook.com/LullsOfficial/) – “Island of Daughters” November 25, 2016 Get “Island of Daughters” on [iTunes](https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/island-of-daughters/id1174651253?ref=glamglare.com).
