They're both definitely distinct but I feel like perhaps North by Clairo or Tile by Tile by Alvvays give me similar vibes. I'm not super familiar with Ethel Cain but she seems to be more folk-leaning than these two. Maybe try Faye Webster?

An artist I always like to recommend is Molly Drake (Nick Drake's mom) who wrote some incredibly unique music, all home recorded in the 60s. I like to say it sounds like Mary Poppins on anti-depressants.
Then maybe Tucker Zimmerman? Singersongeriter active since the 60s who just released a new album made in collaboration with Big Thief.
If you wanna try recent things, I find Allegra Krieger and Naima Bock two awesome singer songwriters

Lucius gave you good advice, so I'll just throw in some tools that can help you work with disks.
I will echo one thing tho, you prob want the cloud in there somewhere, because if a disaster strikes your house, block, town, or you're concerned about political instability having copies of that material in a very different location is GOOD.

Hidden in a neighborhood in a building designed by Ando, lots of rotating exhibitions often involving queer art and history, digital art, and bigger art and architecture retrospectives. Prob as close to a secret big art space as you can get in Chicago.
