That's a good intro you've got there, so you can start by listening to more by the same artists: Simon & Garfunkel, Cat Stevens, Jim Croce, Neil Young, Creedence.
A few more to add: big hits by these artists: Linda Ronstadt, Crosby Stills & Nash, Buffalo Springfield, James Taylor, Joan Baez, The Byrds, The Eagles, early Joni Mitchell.
Grateful Dead also have deep roots in folk music; really shines thru in the Workingman's Dead album; also American Beauty.
Then there's Bob Dylan; a force to be reckoned with. He brought so much to folk rock. Doesn't have the sweetest voice, so you might like covers of his songs, but check this out:

@Wedgiegiver mostly older stuff, but I'm also interested in new artists too!

@Wedgiegiver I take it that country was never shoved down your throat while growing up.

@NativePortlander1970 isn't country music the descended of folk music regardless of where it comes from?
@Hamed2218 No, Bluegrass is, which they try to lump in with c/w.
