I'm glad other people mentioned John Vanderslice. I'm constantly thinking his songs are by JV (like about two minutes ago with "If Nothing Else" :P) Love them both.

Chris Letcher has a big fan in me. Playing Deep Frieze for all my friends (esp. those who love Jason & the Argonauts lol) and the rest of the record is also very good as am finding out day by day.
