Exclamation Folk-ish Cover

A year or two has already elapsed, but on an intimate, somewhat lit stage, from the audience's perspective, a girl on the left is playing upright bass, and the male singer an acoustic guitar either on the center or left of the band. For some reason I remember a violin and a banjo, but there was definitely a keyboard(either left or center), male player for at least the banjo, if any. All of them were caucasian.

The nature of the song is a folk cover of what I would describe similar in style to that of polish all girl band TULIA, and even further, I would say their cover of Enjoy the Silence by DM comes especially close (highly recommended). The soft keyboard/synth in Shout by TFF is also similar, I would say, because I remember a smooth melody and harmony and high reverb that just filled and glued everything together. So it is this natural and raw glory where the guitarist sings in a heartfelt and raspy voice, kinda like the "hipster music" [On Youtube-->Wanderlust ???? - An Indie/Folk/Pop Playlist | Vol. I] The voice and style of the first song comes close, I think, but the other songs are not too far off.

In summary:
Evanesce/Smooth/Gradual Fading of sounds
High Reverb
Synth/Keyboard is the glue
Raspy Voice
Artistic Value
Not Cliche

I realize that this is an imperfect description, but it DOES NOT matter if anything (not only a song, but any idea) that popped into your head is unrelated, I beg you to leave a comment.

Thank you for your time.
