The indie types will never compare to Victoria's Secret models but part of what makes them attractive is that they're real looking and, more importantly, they are generally talented musicians.

I think she's been mentioned but Emily Haines from Metric is probably the most bad-ass indie girl out there.

I think it's hard to see what makes these women attractive when they're not performing. It's kind of a cliche that girls are automatically attracted to guys in bands, no matter how bad they look, but I think it kind of applies to dudes to. Chan Marshall working at Steak & Shake: not all that great. Chan Marshall on stage: much more impressive.

I think that seeing a girl like Feist at a gas station would draw attention to how good-looking she is, just because she would look out of place. On a college campus? I don't think she'd stick out especially.

Props to whomever mentioned Emiliana Torrini. She's done a lot of behind-the-scenes, ghostwriting stuff and she writes absolutely gorgeous music.

If you walk down any main street you are likely to walk past at least one attractive person, but people like Chan Marshall and Joanna Newsom also make beautiful music, which makes them that little more special. It's the "whole".
