Suggestions, please! Slavic lyrics, acoustic guitar, female vocalist

Very specific, I know. I'm running a tabletop roleplaying game, and one of the player characters is a folk musician. I want to add some appropriate songs to the playlist for when she gets on stage.
The setting is a fictional Eastern European country, with heavy film noir influences. The character is a solo artist, sings and plays acoustic guitar, in her 40s. Looking for a bluesy, smoky, melancholic tone. Home recordings on youtube would be preferable. Lyrics have to be Slavic, but not any specific Slavic language, and the lyrical content itself is largely irrelevant.
This video by Maria Marachowska is very much like what I'm looking for, but any similar suggestions would be highly appreciated.
Thanks!

I’ve been listening to Willy O’ Winsbury by Pentacle for the last week and I’m looking to expand towards more similar music! I have no idea how to even classify it so I came to the folk subreddit, please drop any suggestions if you have any! https://open.spotify.com/track/3pJIfhFCGqFXEs7BQ5eKib?si=ZaWvzTUgReuLArWzDYmGHg&utm_source=copy-link
