I've recently bought albums by Indigenous (blues-rock band with a heavy Stevie Ray Vaughan influence), Crooked Still (folk group), and Bon Iver (folk-indie-pop solo artist with a minimalist sound and odd-but-great falsetto vocals). Also bought Metric's
Old Word Underground, Where Are You Now? about a little while back.
Edit:
Here is Indigenous playing my favorite track off their new album
Broken Lands, entitled "Waiting". It's fantastic. If you like blues and/or blues-rock, and especially if you like Stevie Ray Vaughan, I pretty much guarantee that you'll love this.
