Summer Recommendations

I'm a 35 year old ICU nurse with a wife and 2 young daughters, so I don't have a lot of time to research new artists that I think will strike a chord with my love of rock. I'd like to ask for recommendations if I may. On average over the last decade I've added only one to two artists/bands per year to my catalog that I really love. My tastes include.....

PJ, QOTSA, Mark Lanegan, Chris Cornell, Kings of Leon, Black Keys, Tom Petty, White Buffalo, Pete Yorn, Ben Harper, Dylan, Neil Young, and most other offshoots of these. Apparently I tend not to venture too far from popular.

Can anyone help me out? I've read all the Top Lists of 2015 forums etc. and I don't recognize a damn thing.
Any help would be appreciated.

You mentioned 2015, so I have to ask, did you check out any of the mixes in this thread: http://forums.theskyiscrape.com/viewtop ... f=6&t=6856?

I'm not going to make any recommendations, since I doubt you'll have any interest in anything I suggest, but I imagine you could find something worthwhile in that thread.
