Ray LaMontagne is a singer/songwriter from Maine. He has released two
studio albums and has a bunch of rare EPs/Demos. I was reading about
him on his Wiki entry and found this interesting:
His song "Be Here Now" from Till the Sun Turns Black is featured in the trailer for Sarah Polley's feature-length directing debut Away From Her released last year."LaMontagne refers to himself as a 'very private person', and infrequently gives interviews. He also usually does not interact with the audience between songs during his live shows. LaMontagne has been known to perform live shows in the dark in order to separate himself from the audience."

Basia Bulat is a folk, acoustic, singer/songwriter from London, Ontario. She sort of has a voice that could be used to sing soulful R&B songs (perhaps like Joss Stone). I like her current headline on MySpace which reads "More fun than your very own pony!". Her album isn't yet available in the US, but it's available from Rough Trade (Europe) if you're willing to fork over some import shipping plus do some money conversion and will be released in Canada on September 18 from Hardwood Records. A USA release date has not been set yet, but it's in the works.
