I'm not sure how exactly to classify it, but I'm really into that whole scene lately. Ryan Adams, Sun Kil Moon, Songs:Ohia and others....that kind of thing. What are some others I should be checking out?
Bonnie "Prince" Billy Centro-Matic Neko Case Lucero (i dig all their albums, but TMFW is a great starter) Son Volt - Trace Whiskeytown (not sure if you just meant Ryan solo) Jayhawks

Alexi Murdoch - Time Without Consequence (Heard some song on a nissan commercial loL) - Decent album. Alberta Cross Tallest Man on Earth (sort of fits) The Band would be my ultimate recommendation.

Alt-country has slowly become my favorite my genre/sub-genre. I'll just list some bands that I figure fall in the category because it's not an exact science. I guess it can be a little more general since you included "folk rock." Here's a few things to consider, though some have already been listed. Some are more rock, some more country, some more folk, or even bluegrass for that matter, but oh well. I'm sure you've heard of several of these anyway.
Drive-By Truckers Patterson Hood Jason Isbell Lucero Centro-matic South San Gabriel Glossary Slobberbone The Drams Two Cow Garage Drag the River William Elliott Whitmore Ray Lamontagne Rocky Votolato Steve Earle The Avett Brothers The Everybodyfields The Fox Hunt The Broken West The Felice Brothers Chris Knight The Tallest Man On Earth Horse Feathers The National Lights Old 97's The Thrills
