Since most of the musical part of my life is spent among singer songwriters, it's difficult to pick just one. And I'm not sure HOW "unknown" you want them....but I'd nominate L. J. Booth. Definitely not "unknown", but I think he's underexposed. He'll be at Falcon Ridge this weekend; if anyone hasn't heard him I'd recommend it if you'll be there.

He has two CDs available and I beleive he's working on his third. Available through:
Firefly Jar Music
P. O. Box 53
Amherst, WI 54406

Songs about life that (almost) anyone can relate to, with good melodies; great voice and guitar. Doesn't sing about his belly-button, although he does have a song that has belly-buttons in it. And a he** of a nice guy.
