:confused:

I'm wondering if anyone is sharing (or just knows of) some bands fronted by great female vocalists, such as The Chubbies, Luckie Strike, Tsunami Bomb, of course Evenesence..

let me know the artist or bands name, the style of music, and your opinion of the music. :D please and thank you

Listening to some "Tracy Chapman" (blues ?) right now.
I like and think "Edie Brikell" (folk rock?)has a really nice voice. I really like the album (Shooting rubber bands at the moon). (I think thats its name)
My daughter loves to sing along with "Fiona Apple" gotten used to some of that.
Have'nt heard her in a while but "Crissy Hines"(& the pretenders) is pretty good.
Old classic rock.... well their not Janis but "Heart" had a couple talented sisters.

if you like high pitched vocals try coheed and cambira... well the lead is a guy, but in their early stuff he sounds like a girl&#33; its good stuff though

the songs that i recomend you to download are as follows:
&#39;wake up&#39; and &#39;forgiven&#39; by alanis morrisette from jagged little pill
&#39;Sweet Rosalyn &#39; sheryl crow from her 2nd untitled album
&#39;loniless etc...&#39; and &#39;auroroa&#39; by veruca salt. veruca salt is one of my fav bands.
&#39;when angels f**k and devils kiss&#39; by jack off jill
&#39;new dress&#39; &#39;never be the same*&#39; by the lucky strikes
lucky strikes is a cool new female led punk band. they are awesome&#33;
any thing with alot of users or sources from garbage is usually cool
as well as the sundays.
mazzy star&#39;s &#39;fade into you&#39; is really good
jefferson starship or airplane (can&#39;t remember) song: &#39;white rabbit&#39; is really good
&#39;magic man&#39; by heart
&#39;whats up&#39; and &#39;misty mountain hop&#39; by the 4 non blondes are cool
"get gone&#39; by fionna apple
jack off jill is somewhat similar to evanescense
jefferson airplane and heart are classic rock
search all of these bands and download all thier most popular songs with the users.
i highly recomend veruca salt...though i preferre thier obscure songs as opposed to thier popular songs.

my name is joe and i write songs all the time and i record them on the computer.

they are all different so dont give up after the 1st song. the link to my songs are as follows:
www.emayhem.com/nomsans
i would greatly appreciate it.
thank you.
[email protected]

p.s.
the songs are in no particular order at all so i guess pick one that sounds appealing i guess. bare in mind im not the worlds best singer by no means. also looking for fellow musicians in the pittsburgh area.

the song &#39;citizen friction&#39; is a song about a character i deveoped that commits suicide.
&#39;michelle&#39; is a poorly performed beatles cover. i dont kow why it on there. ignore.
&#39;a perfect fool&#39; is my most ambitious song. i really like this song alot. its about addiction.
&#39;the winter song&#39; is a piano song about wintertime.
&#39;january embers&#39; is just an idea that i have for a song. not completely complete though.
&#39;sunday morning&#39; is an interesting song. it is a newer one but i like it.
&#39;ressurection cemetary&#39; is a wierd song idea i wrote based on a true story.
&#39;flotsam and jetsom&#39; is a blues song about drowning in the ocean.
&#39;joy ride&#39; is a pretty cool little song that i wrote based on a true story believe it or not. its about a road trip across the country.
&#39;nomsans&#39; is a kinda crappy song about confinement
&#39;sleep disorder blues&#39; is a blues song about sleep disorders
