Female musicians
 
Who are the best ones?

I can only think of Kate Bush who seems to be regarded highly and I haven't even listened to her so she might not even be good.

Singers don't count unless they wrote the material themselves. Can anyone recommend any good female musicians?

Mary Halvorson is my most recent find.

I will look for some of her music, thanks. Any recommendations in particular?

And thanks for the merge mods.

Norah Jones both has a beautiful voice and is very talented on the guitar and piano.

....and nobody has said anything about 'The Great Kat' yet. As barking as you get, she is a brilliant musician.

Her album with Dangermouse is very very good. I love her voice combined with Dangermouse's fantastic production.

Also, PJ Harvey, Martina Topley Bird, Björk, Sinead O'Connor and Ane Brun are all very talented female musicians.

Kaki King- guitarist and composer

Quote:

In February 2006, Rolling Stone released a list of "The New Guitar Gods," on which King was the sole woman and youngest artist (beating Derek Trucks in age by two months as the youngest on the list).[3][4] In addition to a 10-year career that includes five LP and two EP albums, King has also scored music for television and film. She worked alongside Eddie Vedder and Michael Brook contributing music for the soundtrack to Sean Penn's Into the Wild, for which the trio received nominations for a Golden Globe Award for Best Original Score.[5]
Been loving her Dreaming of Revenge Album

Right on! Also, she underappreciated I'd say; sinead o'connor is excellent.
