I'm going through a real big stage of listening to chilled out, singer/sognwriter stuff right now. You know, lyric driven, few guitars, and whatnot. Anyone else on the same page?
A few current favourites that I would recommend: Mark Kozelec Kimya Dawson Cailin Callahan Brendan Canning Mason Jennings Fionn Regan Josh Ritter Karine Polwart etc. |

It happens to me in waves. Every once in a while I'll just listen to Kings of Convenience for that very reason. It gets old after a while though, to be honest. A little too college angst-y for me.
Besides, I listen to Radiohead the majority of the time and most of their material is lyric driven. |

Ooh, Rebs! I'm liking Kings of Convenience! The guy's voice is really neat. ADORE The Weight Of My Words.
RockItStudios, I tried Secondhand Serenade, they were OK, a little bit Dashboard for my taste, and a lot poppier than what I was talking about, but still listenable. |

"I'd Rather Dance With You" is Kings of Convenience's best song. I like the rest of their stuff (as well as most of Erland Oye's other material), but that's all that really stands out to be. Have I forced you to listen to Jens Lekman yet (if you haven't discovered him on your own)? Because if I haven't, I am now. |

John Mayer, Sara Bareilles, Secondhand Serenade and Natasha Bedingfield would be four of my many favorite singer/songwriters. :]
