I love Bright Eyes and Elliot Smith, but one can only listen to the same CDs so many times. Anyone have any suggestions of bands that sound like either Briht Eyes or Elliot Smith?
1. Damien Rice
2. Leonard Cohen
3. Jeff Buckley
4. Ben Harper
5. Jason Mraz (some songs)
6. Travis
7. Jack Johnson, not the same style but gorgeous music

Damien Rice is a great Irish artist who is reallt famous in England,um maybe Colin Hay and Rhett Millar if you like stuff a little more upbeat. Leonard Cohen is awesome, as are Tim and Jeff Buckley. Jeff Buckley isn't QUITE like the two you described, but give him a try if you like Elliot Smith. His album 'Grace' is one of the best ever made in my opinion. Seriously its sweeeeet.
