someone told me about this guy a while ago:

http://www.myspace.com/dannyschmidt

i really like his music, (besides his singing) and i'd like to find more music that sounds like that. obviously folk is quite a broad genre, and i haven't really been successful finding similar music (yes i suck). so pretty much im looking for folk artists that sound like this guy, down home american-ish, guitars and violins, etc bsajfdsadska

if you want someone who sounds like this guy, i'd say josh ritter is probably pretty close, both have that dylan-esque vocal delivery.

also check out ray lamontagne's first album, "trouble", its got kinda simple folky instrumentation, though it's a little more folk or soul than americana.

maybe check out ryan adams, he's got some songs like "sweet carolina" that fit the build.

Gasoline heart's a pretty good americana band and Band Marino's really good though they're closer to indie than folk
