define Independant. Not signed to a major label or not signed at all?

Yes, tell us what you meen.

already did. i meant unheard of, not signed to a major label, no big distribution deals, that sort of thing.

The Mountain Goats are pretty unheard of, but good.

If you like them, then take a listen to the Extra Glenns, a John Darnielle side project from a couple years ago. It's pretty good stuff.

 

Also, Richmond Fontaine are pretty good for anyone who like good, dark alternative country.
