Kingston Trio

asking for help from knowledgeable folk Music lovers only!?

Okay I'm quite a music enthusiast so please dont reply back with artist/bands like bob dylan,nick drake, joni mitchell, joan baez, (peter,paul,mary), Kingston trio, bright eyes, elliot smith,etc.

im looking for cult like favorites along the lines of vhasti bunyan, townes van zant, devendra banhart, donovan, holy modal rounders, incredible string band,animal collective, vetiver! It might seem weird for me asking such a question since i love finding new music and i should know where to find more but why not ask people on yahoo answers and see what i might get! weither its old or new I want to know!

OK, half of these are from Texas, but if by cult-like favorites (bit of an oxymoron) Townes Van Zandt, Donovan, Incredible String Band, you mean 'brilliant, intricate lyrics as literature,' there's something in the water there....

Shawn Phillips fits it all. 60's, Texas, England, cult, favorite.

Leonard Cohen & John Prine may be obvious, but just in case-

AND
Steve Goodman, Eliza Gilkyson, Steve Earle, Butch Hancock, Rickie Lee Jones, Michael (not C) Smith, Guy Clark, Willis Alan Ramsey, Lucinda Williams, Lyle Lovett, Mickey Newbury, Robert Earl Keen, Jr., Ray Wylie Hubbard, Trout Fishing In America, Little Jack Melody (I can go on-)
