Conor Oberst
Sam Beam
Chad VanGaalen
Jimmy Tamborello
Ben Gibbard
Jason Molina
Aaron Gerber & Sarah Winchester (the band A Weather)
Jim James
Matt Ward
plus 100's of others

(truthfully if the artist doesn't write and play atleast one of their songs i won't listen, genre doesn't necesarilly apply)

I have a lot of favorite American and British song writers/singers, but my favorite international one is Megumi Hayashibara.

I listen to a lot of Colin Hay and Jack Johnson. I'm an acoustic songwriter/singer myself, and I like listening to their songs and getting ideas for different playing styles and singing styles.
