This thread is a "sort of" continuation of another one: Latest & older solo guitar performances (DIY one person "band" thread)
But expanded beyond solo presentation and the restriction to guitar, as well as being vastly more amenable to vocals (i.e., minus a heavy lean on instrumental work).
Preferably with an emphasis on "live" or cruder recorded performances (an audience is not required) as opposed to dense studio products with layers and layers of added tracks that elaborately prettify a song or composition for consumption on the popular market.
Obviously, music of most categories these days isn't going to be "raw" and unadorned -- it will be modified, enhanced, groomed, and amplified by electronic equipment to some degree or another. So the "minimalism" here has more to do with simplicity in the number of performers and instruments -- and fewer tracks of unseen recorded music & singing overlaid -- than in a primitive audio experience completely devoid of technological transformation.
Documentary & commemoration oriented videos of performers and composers/songwriters can be contributed as well.
