Not Foo Fighters, they're hardly the sound I'm after. I'll try Better than Erza though

Being from Texas, I'm a tad proud of Stevie.

As soon as I saw the thread title I thought "Bright Eyes", though they don't make strictly acoustic music anymore.

Right Away, Great Captain! are good too, its the singer from Manchester Orchestra's solo side project. Its a trilogy of concept albums about 17th century sailor whose wife cheats on him with his brother.

Fleet Foxes aren't exactly depressing, but this is great.

Laura Marling is really good, but I'm not sure how well her lyrics would come across to someone outside the UK.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cR_lzh6gvT4

This is one of my favourite things I've ever seen live.

About half the tracks on the Bad Books album are acoustic.

You might like some of Foo Fighters' acoustic stuff. This one is about Kurt Cobain.

What acoustic stuff do you listen to already?

Early Mountain Goats (All Hail West Texas and everything before it, after that is still acoustic and still good but there's drums and bass as well)
Paul Baribeau
Eric's Trip's acoustic songs (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JtPiR1Wm7E0)
Bert Jansch (first album is one of my all-time favorites)
Late period Swans have a lot of acoustic stuff and they're depressing as all hell.

+1. I started listening to Paul when Floyd mentioned him on another thread, really good.
