Definitely agree on Nickel Creek. I love the paired vocals, and stunning string work.

Luther Wright & the Wrongs pretty earned instant cult status, for having the balls to remake Pink Floyds the Wall album. More so, doing it VERY well, and making it sound both familiar and unique at the same time. Rebuild the Wall is an amazing album, but I prefer their original stuff from Guitar Pickin Martyrs.
I don't listen to a lot of country but I am going to look into all of these bands. I've heard Nickel Creek's name a few times but I never checked them out.

My list:
Scott H. Biram
Dock Boggs
Johnny Cash
John Denver
Willie Nelson

As I was clicking around last.fm, making sure that my picks all had "country" in their top tags, I discovered Slim Cessna's Auto Club, but since I've only heard one of their songs, I can't really put them ahead of Willie.
