country/bluegrass/americana influences?
Scandanavian War Machine:
i second Bob Dylan and select White Stripes songs.
try to find the white stripes song "Lord, Send Me An Angel"
!!!CPAOI!!!:
Otis Taylor, no seriously. The dude is one of the best roots-blues song writers alive today. Get Respect the Dead first. Also Vetiver., definitely Vetiver.
!!!CPAOI!!!:
Oh yeah, and "Lord, Send Me an Angel" is great.
Johnny C:
The Sadies, Steve Earle, and the song "Drivin' On 9" by the Breeders.
Oh, and you have The Mekons listed twice up there. I mean, double The Mekons is no problem. Just thought you'd like to know.
logosmonkey:
I would say throw in a little Gram Parsons and also some Whiskeytown (ryan adams original band). Also The Boy Least Likely Too they have a noticeable country influence. Some Devendra Banhart as well. Uhhh and I second that Meat Puppets suggestion. Also you could look at the Refreshments last album "The bottle and fresh horses" is at least influenced pretty heavily by country.
