Great female music artists.. please post 'em here!

My favourite, Loreena McKennitt:

'Caravanserai'



'The Mummers' Dance'



'The Bonny Swans'



'She Moved Through the Fair'



'The Mystic's Dream'





I cannot even explain my appreciation for this woman. She's an angel.

Hey check out Rose Rossi. She's a blend of 90's alternative rock with some awesome melodies. If you're into indie rock and some rocker gals like fiona or tori, she's worth checkin out.

Bruce

Hey there, musicnfoodislife. Many thanks for the recommendation. I'm definitely a fan of both alternative rock and indie rock. Will be sure to check her out.

And by the way, welcome to CurbZone.

Bruce

Just found her video to her song "Fade" on YouTube...



My first impressions are pretty darn good, and that's saying something considering how picky I am when it comes to music. "Fade" somehow reminds me of The Pretenders mixed with The Police. All of which make for a definite positive.

Many thanks again. I'll be sure to further check her out.

Some of my favourites...


Heart - Crazy On You



Fleetwood Mac - Dreams



Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Turn Into

Bruce

Damn, how could I forget about Stevie Nicks and Heart?!

Heart is awesome, especially "Barracuda".



And one musn't forget about The Pretenders. This unplugged version of "Brass in Pocket" really showcases Chrissie's singing ability:



Here's the original while we're at it:



I also think Avril Lavigne has a wonderful voice. Especially on the lower ranges where her voice has a some sort of special sweetness to it.

Though, I'm fully aware most cannot even fathom the idea of the words "good" and "Avril Lavigne" in the same sentence, I couldn't disagree more. I must admit though - that by and large - I'm not a great fan of her music style. Some of her music is just too, err... Well, we'll leave it at: "not a fan".

That being said, I've always liked her song, "Nobody's Home". Especially this acoustic version:



I'm also quite fond of Alanis Morissette's earlier stuff ("Jagged Little Pill" & "Supposed Infatuation Junkie")

Choleric

I can't believe you forgot Ann and Nancy either, especially since theyre from Canadia...

Also...

Fiona Apple


Probably my favourite song from her, even though it is a cover.

and...

Tori Amos


another cover I know.

Bruce

Haha! Yes, I'm ashamed.

Bruce
