@LABinSC here are some music artists that fit that style of music that you have described. It would be of better help if you could remember some lyrics to the song because that could narrow it down to the exact music artist, and song.
• Gregory Alan Isakov: Known for melancholy, beautifully written acoustic songs with a slight alt-country/indie flavor.
• The Head and the Heart: A staple of early-2010s indie radio featuring multiple male vocalists and heavy themes of working, distance, and missed connections.
• Shakey Graves (Alejandro Rose-Garcia): Hits the exact description of "indie song with a country twist" perfectly. His music frequently tells character-driven stories about working-class hurdles.
• Lord Huron: Their early albums (Lonesome Dreams and Strange Trails) were packed with narrative storytelling, though usually leaning a bit more mystical or cinematic than workplace irony.
• Jason Isbell / The Avett Brothers: Both acts heavily bridge the indie-rock and country landscape with deep, hyper-specific story songs about couples navigating the daily grind.
Take care, and GOD bless.
