Invincible1958

"Wir sind Helden" are a great german band. You can see the video to their 2005-hit "Nur ein Wort" at youtube.com. As you can see, they are huge Bob Dylan Fans:

When you're more in R&B/Soul, then Xavier Naidoo is the right choice in Germany. Also from 2005: "Dieser Weg":

I've read that she used to be a comedienne in Argentina before she gave up that career for music. I have two of her albums, but I think she has released more (only two have been released in the U.S.). Her music sounds like acoustic electronica. She has been compared to Björk often.
