I've been obsessing over this music all day. I was told about one band on Facebook by Mark Hill; Dark,Dark, Dark. Mark directed me to AllMusic and I just loved them and kept looking for associated bands. There all these bands emerging in the U.S. in the last few years doing this multi-instrumental, Americana, bluegrass, indy stuff and it's all amazing.The term I've heard used to describe this music is Hobo Revival...Last FM describes Hurray For The Riff Raff as
"......currently a 4 piece folk band out of New Orleans, Louisiana. Alynda Lee leads the band with her deep, aching voice, which seems unparalleled yet reminds us of Nona Marie Invie of Dark Dark Dark, and all-star banjo skills. Walt McClements plays accordion, fiddle & toy piano, Aubrey Freeman plays double bass, and Shae Freeman plays the saw, autoharp & vocals."
This music is a perfect soundtrack for Harry and Silvio; all whimsy and creaking and darkness and fun.

You might like Saint Seneca, I don't know if they're exactly the hobo revival genre but they are fun to listen to also. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6ZP8WuYtog
