For the last year I have found myself almost obsessed with this style of music. After some fruitless searches on here I was unable to find much mention of this style. I do not know if this is due to the DIY (read: poor quality recordings) nature of the music, or lack of exposure, but this genre features some of the very best songwriters that I have had the pleasure of listening to.
Some noteworthy artists include:
Jeffrey Lewis
Andrew Jackson Jihad
Johnny Hobo and the Freight Trains
Defiance, Ohio
Paul Baribeau
Kimya Dawson
I could list many more, but this list should give someone a good idea of the scene in general.
Anyway, if anyone knows of any other good acts in this genre, please feel free to post them here.
