Dark Americana / Southern Gothic recommendations

<< < (5/11) > >>

tomselleck69:
A good answer to this query is "The Anthology of American Folk Music"

some other answers:
The Handsome Family, William Elliott Whitmore, recent Tom Waits albums

less relevant (happier, less narrative-y) but maybe worth checking out:
Scout Niblett, Jolie Holland, The Be Good Tanyas, Old Crow Medicine Show

Helryne:
I've got a couple of suggestions that may, or may not, be helpful.

Anything by:

The Spectral Light and Moonshine Firefly Snakeoil Jamboree

or

Stone Breath

Anything on:

the "Dark Holler" label


penfolder:
Best suggestion i can come up with is "Bubblegum" by Mark Lanegan Band

Being English the term Americana has always been a bit of a mystery as to what exactly it means but this album is dark and bluesy and Lanegan has one of the best whiskey-soaked voices in rock, imo.

rynne:
Thanks again to everyone who replied.  I haven't checked out every suggestion yet, but in addition to the ones I mentioned earlier, I really like Munly (excellent recommendation!), O'death, The Handsome Family, Smoke Fairies, and Stone Breath.

glyphic:
Woo! Finally someone else jumps on the Munly bandwagon. Together we'll speak those words hard.
