I am finishing up a short film and have music from M. Ward that I've been using for temp and really like the song, but I cannot get rights to it, so I am looking for a very similar song or artist that is indie or free use. I don't have the time to search all over the web as I'm trying to finalize the edit. The song I'm trying to match is "Fisher of Men" by M. Ward.

I'm looking for something as close to this as possible. The band found should not be mainstream ie signed to a major label as I'd be under the same problem of trying to get rights. Here are a few sites you could try:

or search through any royalty free music sites or maybe browse myspace or other music sites.
I'm looking for something very close to the old time country/rock/blues sound with a slightly indie/quirky tone.
Here is a trailer to the film to give you a better idea of how the song should feel with the image:

I would like to have at least 3 similar songs found in case I cannot get permission for one or other. This may seem simple, but I'm looking for something very similar to this song. This will require someone who doesn't mind browsing through many sites and songs and who might be somewhat familiar with this type of music.
Also, I need to have this song found by no later than March 28th, 2012.
Immediately available. I am a professional songwriter having a fully equipped studio and offering a suite of services to meet client needs. Please refer to my Private Message for details and a Demo. Thank you.
Plenty of experience with music research given the fact I own my own musical consultance company called Mellow Flow.
I am familiar with the country/folk genre and the indie twist you want. Excellent research skills on music.
