Americana Bands

Anyone have any good recommendations?

Calexico, Andrew Jackson Jihad, Steve Earle, Justin Townes Earle.

If you check out any, check out NIGHTMARES FOR A WEEK.

thanks

plenty...although americana is a kinda weird genre since it's often the same thing as either alt. country or folk rock.

calexico and justin townes earle are great recs, and besides those I'd recommend (not necessarily in order): jason isbell, phosphorescent, drive-by truckers, blitzen trapper, magnolia electric co, songs:ohia, my morning jacket, the felice brothers, alejandro escovedo, nathaniel rateliff, deer tick, dylan leblanc, centro-matic, gillian welch, dave rawlings machine, ryan adams, chuck prophet, richmond fontaine, bloodkin, lucero, the deep dark woods...

to begin with. and I interpreted americana pretty loosely.

Like others have said not sure what counts as americana these days but some bands of this "ilk"
Marah, Lucero, The Glossary, Two Cow Garage, Jesse Malin

All have Americana type feel but with bit more of a rock n roll vibe
(if anyone knows bands with similar styles to that let me know
