Having recently lost Holdsy, I got to wondering who are the "new" (meaning since the *90s) guitarists in the world of progressive Rock music picking up the torch?
*as great as he is Scott Henderson doesn't count since he started in the 80s

Why is it whenever someone mentions an artist that was clearly progressive (yet not the Symph weenie definition of Prog) do certain people feel compelled to snort "thats not Prog" like a whiny 5th grader?
Luke Machin The Tangent, MASCHINE
Tom Monda - Thank You Scientist
Travis Larson - Travis Larson Band
Zach LoPresti - Out Of The Beardspace
Julian Lage - Solo and in various jazz and other projects
probably a bunch more that I will regret remembering in 5 minutes

Eric Gillette (Neal Morse band)
Jimmy Herring - with Colonel Bruce Hampton and Widespread Panic , he also has his own band, and is touring this year with John McLaughlin
You'd love him!

Adam Rogers was in the cool NY fusion band Lost Tribe in the mid 90s.
He also has a lot of solo jazz stuff and sideman work.

This was the first one to pop into my mind...I love this young man's style.

Three great players who IMO aren't in the best bands to showcase their playing, even though they're all the leaders of the bands they're in. IMO all three bands should have a lot more lead guitar soloing and/or their songs just aren't always that strong.:

Tosin Abasi is quite remarkable!
I think they are technically still together but currently inactive. Haven't heard any news from them in a while. There are still sporadic posts on FB.

Thanks for your PM explaining! I'll check out Ekhlund's Art Metal project. BTW, I see also that there are one or two Freak Kitchen releases I haven't yet heard so I should check them out. I do have one of Ekhlund's solo albums and it didn't, for me, rectify the problems Freak Kitchen has.
Don't get me wrong, Freak Kitchen has some very catchy songs, I just think they'd be much better if he really let lose on them, or at least included one ripping solo on almost each song.
Actually, I'm not sure how great Claudio Sanchez is. Coheed's output is a little uneven, IMO, but I love the album The Black Rainbow, and wish they'd do more like that. But their last album could definitely use more soloing.
She is not new, but Mary Halvorson.
I'm not lazy. I just work so fast I'm always done.
