This is a great thread, tree. Completely agree with your takes on this style.
For the male equivalent, what about Calvin Harris' "Summer"? Even though, I actually like the tune, probably because of the music. But, that vocal style seems present.

Thanks.
Calvin Harris' "Summer" absolutely sucks, but I think for different reasons. Not sure this qualifies as indie girl.

For your consideration for the male equivalent, I'd nominate the broken/fragile guy voice:

Isn't the male equivalent basically Marcus Mumford? That's what came to mind when I watched the video in the OP.

I heard a Spoon song on the radio the other day and got the male equivalent vibes going on there.

Bright Eyes/Conor Oberst certainly has his own indie vocal style that is oft emulated, but I don't really think it's the male equivalent of the indie girl voice as personified by bands like Sylvan Esso.
