I'm looking for folk artists, any suggestion?
Not necessarily just like Sufjan, but I bet you'll enjoy The Mountain Goats. If you're into lo-fi, check out All Hail West Texas, if you want studio quality production, check out Heretic Pride

Listen to Ram yo
>>63090512
Elliott Smith
>>63090512
theres no folk artists remotely like sufjan because he makes popular music
WHY NOT CHECK OUT JOANNA NEWSOM
You'll like Nick Drake, Joanna Newsom, and Gregory Alan Isakov
>>63090512
i have a suggestion
don't listen to soofyan even stevens
>>63090512
Andrew Bird
>>63090512
Joanna Newsom is probably the closest to Sufjan

Joanna Newsom sucks
>>63092166
fuck you
Simon and garfunkel perhaps.
>>63092166
Not to be a downer but I like majority of sufjan yet dont like newsom, so thinking that you'll like her just cause you appreciate sufjan is a bad idea

>>63092284
She sounds like a fucking harpy getting railed in the ass. How can anyone like her voice?
>>63092496
her voice is beautiful you cunt
I don't think music is for you, maybe you should stick to video games and anime
>>63090512
Caribou's early stuff.
>>63092496
ignore that guy, her voice is like marmite. you either love it or hate it. i'm not a fan either personally.
>>63090512
Sparklehorse. Mostly its a wonderful life, the album
Sun Kil Moon

nice projecting
Sufjan described his music as a mix of Bright Eyes and Elliott Smith, so start there.
>>63090512
the Shins
>>63094016
Piano Fire
>>63094083
I love both those artists but I can't seem to get sufjan at all. Like he has the odd track that is great like the first from Michigan but for the most part his music is waaay too whimsical and gimmicky. C&l looks promising tho
>>63094323
It really isn't gimmicky at all. It may seem that way at first, or if you've only heard of Sufjan through /mu/. But he is in a league of his own as a songwriter. Once you get into him you can't listen to anyone else. He is a genius when it comes to writing melodies, like Elliott Smith in that way. That's his appeal in my opinion. If you haven't listened to C&L, get on that right away, it's nothing like Illinoise.
The Only Thing is the best track by the way.
