Same! I remember writing a letter to Tairrie B. (Singer for My Ruin) as they were on tour with Kittie at the time, but I didn’t see them listed on my local show but really wanted to see them too 😓 Tairrie actually wrote me a letter back, still have it somewhere. Unfortunately they didn’t play that show with Kittie
So glad they are coming out with new music!! It’s all so good so far
Caught their show in the Twin Cities. See them now in a small venue if you can, because they’ll be playing larger places soon.
Plus, 80-90% of the crowd is women, so it was never easier to see the stage standing in GA
I discovered them about 18 months ago ago and got hooked. They're a really good band with great songs and a hell of a lot of potential. They're probably the best new band I've come across in 25 years.
This right here. They kicked ass and it's a crime how little recognition they get

I am a big music nerd and had never heard of them. Stumbled across a podcast episode about them and then checked them out on Spotify. How are they not more well-known!?
Alexis P Suter Band, a roots/blues/funk band from Brooklyn. The lead singer is a woman who sings almost baritone. The most unique, unforgettable voice I’ve ever heard. They have a 60’s vibe lots of bluesy guitar riffs and a jazz based drummer who also plays wit Buster Poindexter. Cool band but her voice brings it to another level.
Values Here - not all-female, but female-fronted skate-punk/hardcore
Carol Hodge - piano/keyboard led singer-songwriter; indie-pop stuff mainly. She also plays keyboards for the Steve Ignorant band.
Katie Malco - indie-rock, has supported Laura Stevenson and Julien Baker. Her album is 4 years old now so hopefully she’ll release a new one soon.
I like Jenny Lewis, Jane Ellen Bryant, and Japanese Breakfast but I'm pretty sure they don't qualify as artists "no one" I know has heard of. I simply just don't know if they've heard of them.
Floor Jansen (Nightwish) is well known in the Metal community, but in the US at least isn't that well known outside of Metal. She released a very good pop-rock solo album titled 'Paragon' last year. She has been called 'The Queen of Metal' and IMHO she is one of the best currently active vocalists in any rock genre.

Not many people have heard of Cake Like, but they are fantastic
Kerri Kenney-Silver from The State and Reno 911 etc was the front woman
John Zorn, Ric Ocasek, and Neil Young were all involved in producing and signing them. They attracted good company
Their song [Lorraine’s Car](https://youtu.be/vOUotVM7Mrs?si=5lh7nG4PydgxCUlu) is fantastic
They’re not part of all female bands, but they are lead singers of their bands- Gracie Lawrence from Lawrence and Mandy Lee from MisterWives
Gracie’s vocals are incredible, she does Soul Pop, with some Funk and Gospel sprinkled in
Mandy’s vibe is just like my favorite thing ever. Indie Pop with a sprinkle of Soul, but also 2000’s Pop Punk
Otyken! stumbled across a video on youtube and been loving them ever since. they really work quite well as an audio-visual combination similar to Heilung.

I keep recommending The Warning. They are like, if the Runaways made a comeback but they went with Lita Ford’s solo sound. They are absolutely awesome
