The band is "Over The Rhine" from Cincinnati Ohio.
They've been around since 1990, and have released 17 Cd's. Linford Detweiler and Karin Bergquist, the married couple at the heart of the band have recently been named to Paste magazine’s list of the "100 Best Living Songwriters"
The sound is kind of hard to pinpoint, but it expands beyond rock to encompass elements of country and jazz, with a rich sophistication to piano-led chamber ballads and jazz-inflected folk.

well The Cinematic are a good indie band but then again your definition od indie might be different from mine. There aren't too mainstream but they are becoming well know. You know its just a suggestion.
