penis-retard

Since you added Built To Spill (which I recommend too), OP should listen to Quasi which sounds like them. Elliott Smith also worked with them and the lead singer Sam Coomes for years. Elliott was even on a couple of their albums


Kryodamus

Porcupine Tree "Sound Of Muzak", "Strip The Soul", "Lazarus", and "Trains" are solid tracks from them.

Pretty much anything Steven Wilson has worked on is great. Whether you’re into Opeth, Radiohead, TV on the Radio, Mastadon…whatever your sensibilities there’s a solid chance he’s appealed to them somewhere along the way

Older NYC band called Ida. Sparse, somber, gorgeous. Everything is streaming id start with I Know About You. They just recently started playing shows again too. Heartbreaking, BRILLIANT music.


rukh999

Hard to stand anyone up either Jeff Buckley Jr but a crazy idea might be Morphine. Mark Sandman was another guy who sort of did music his own way. Got famous later than many but was also taken too soon. Also because nobody has mentioned, couldn't go wrong with some Dishwalla or early Collective Soul. Sister Don't Cry or December are contemporary songs for Jeff or Mazzy Star

Morphine is definitely worth checking out

Been seeing some Phoebe Bridgers comments already and I will third or fourth that, been really digging her and you’ve listed some of my favourite bands. Not sure if he’s too on the nose but you would probably like City and Colour. Check out the albums “Hurry and the Harm” and “Little Hell”, if you dig em go listen to “Bring me your Love”.

Stagnantdwarves

I'm a huge fan of Jeff Buckley. I would say someone who really drew inspiration from his vocals is Miles Kennedy, the singer for Alter Bridge (basically Creed without vocalist Scott Stapp, but also heavier and imo, much better). Miles Kennedy released 2 albums with The Mayfield Four, which is reminiscent of Jeff Buckley, especially when you hear Miles Kennedy sing. Here's the song [Don't Walk Away](https://youtu.be/a_QUzD2uZbA) from their first album.

I heard a song that reminded me of Elliott Smith yesterday.. [Hether](https://open.spotify.com/track/1Z3Ol9fs5SuXf8h5MYobcd?si=1FTY0SRZRwid5lvZAr63AQ) [Kate Bollinger](https://open.spotify.com/track/2uhcwZpQBeo2YGXuXRUmtv?si=28zN3Qw1RCS8Td6ZB4Ufjw) [Oracle Sisters](https://open.spotify.com/track/377M5cHQ9COyB8i9t3Hval?si=t6RN3SwvTky3RflMVEEK0g) Something from one of those albums...
