Thank you @toastmarmaladecoffee
Ok, this one hurts my memory and I combed through my CD collection to find it but no avail.
The singer was a woman, and had the whole “cursive singing, waifish child like voice but depressed and sultry” type voice. It was a solo act I believe and I think was released in the mid to late 2000s
It was atmospheric music, with an electronica trip hop style bent (but definitely way more indie folk vibe) reminiscent of Bjork - in fact I remember thinking like who is this person ripping Bjork off) I feel like it was around or just a little before some of the indie of the time like Iron and Wine, Devendra, Beirut, Shins-y era
Here’s who it’s NOT: Cat Power, Bjork, Feist, Cocorosie, Hawk and a Hacksaw, Beirut, Joanna Newsom, Arcade Fire, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Smokey and Miho. I
It was definitely 2000s maybe very early aughts. I’d like to think I know Trip Hop very well so I don’t think it will be anything from that canon or before 2001.
I’ve scoured some Pitchfork articles, run through Music maps and all music sites, checked my CD cases, etc.
Ah! It’s killing me! Any Indie enthusiasts out there with ideas?
