-Okkervil River

That ignores more "established" performers that fit your style preferences well, like:

-Elliott Smith
-Rilo Kiley (or Jenny Lewis and the Watson Twins' stuff)
-Modest Mouse
-Spoon

Anyone who likes The National I think would also really like The Weakerthans. Very lyric-driven.

Also, as I'm sure loads of people here Feist and Cat Power, you should really check out Thao Nguyen (with the Get Down Stay Down). Her album is incredible (my #1 for January) and I saw her in concert last night...incredible.

I recently saw Thao again, but this time I booked the show and put it together. If you get the chance to see her, you really really should. I should be booking her again soon, so if you live near KY, be sure to catch the show...

The Weakerthans are great. Their lyric writer use to be with Propagahndi.

I've been listenin alot to Billy Bragg and Wilco's cover of Woody Guthrie Songs.
