Not a Happy Camper

Who are the best/your favorite not-well-known artists on BandCamp.com?

I like browsing through BandCamp's artists page, finding gems (i.e. not that famous artists) and listening to the music, but I know I'm missing a lot of good music. So far I've stumbled upon good music from Mary Fleming (classical), Detroit CYDI (Hip Hop), 20-minute Loop (Rock), The Crowd (Hip Hop). I know about Diz Gibran and Del.

Who is your favorite artist on BandCamp, or a really good artist you've heard on BandCamp? Looking mostly for music with lyrics, but anything is fine as long as it is GOOD. Bonus points for artists that allow free downloads.

Dunno how well-known he is, but I like Chico Mann a lot.
