Have you checked out Jamendo[1] yet?

Dan Lynch[2] is a good artist IMO, he also releases a podcast once a
week containing CC'd music, called Rathole radio[3]. In addition, he
created a mix-CD of CC'd music[4] especially for MFS's Software
Freedom Day celebrations.

Jonathan Coulton is another favourite artist of mine (he played
Manchester Academy last year too) [5].

Nine Inch Nails have released a couple of albums under a CC BY-NC-SA license.

As has been pointed out, you'll need to be aware of some of the
restrictions of some CC licenses. Also, I'm not sure if the NC clause
prevents you from selling CDs for non-profit groups (it might be worth
asking the bands individually if it does).
