For those who like hushed, shimmering, contemporary folk music, you'll love The Great Lake Swimmers (basically singer-songwriter Tony Dekker and friends), who've recorded their spare acoustic magic in the unusual but atmospheric settings of an abandoned grain silo and a small lakeside church:

Saw them live at the church of St. George the Martyr in Toronto a couple years ago. Fabulous!
[I may be pagan, but I seem to go to 'church' a lot these days -- for concerts, folk dancing, etc. We're a pretty secular lot here in Canada, so the churches are becoming de facto community centres, concert halls, and recording studios, just to pay the 'rent' (well, taxes & utilities, really). Saw Jeff Tweedy play solo at Trinity-St. Paul United Church a few years ago. He seemed to be somewhat bemused by his surroundings, and got a bit flustered anytime he happened to swear, because he realized he was doing so "in church".]
