That's true, even most female singers have an all-male backing band. It's kind of unfair, if you think of it...
Tsk, you just act if there aren't great bands with woman on the instruments..: Sarah Jane of Gorilla -> http://www.myspace.com/mygorillaspace Liz of Electric Wizard
Ruyter of Nashvillye Pussy, their bass player is female too. and of course there are plenty enough girl bands, but most of them I can think of are punk bands, which I'm not really into.
I had to think about Malle Pietje & the Bimbo's as well, but they didn't really impress me :tongue:. They were fun live though!
yeah but you dont SEE them as much which annoys me since they are there... Most people would be hard pressed to name a famous female bass player or drummer etc. And theres the smashing pumpkins - the new SP and d'arcy from the old... And Megan White from the White Stripes... lol thats all i can think of.
Of course! White Stripes is a good one as well. Oh yeah, I forgot the lady of the wonderful Acid King! Damn, I knew I forgot someone important
There's also this band called Guano Apes, I think they split up now, I'm not too sure, but they have a female singer. I havent heard them in a LONG time, I remember it was a friend of mine from Finland who lend me a cd and I was ohh this is cool but you might want to check them out.
There are TONS of great bands with female singers that are also male-friendly. Throw in some distorted guitars, and guys will probably listen. :$
I remember them! Really wellknown here among the (perhaps more alternative) rocklovers. I believe they also had a hit with one song.
"well known here"... where is here? I remember I listen to them like 4 years ago, I did like them then, but didnt get much into them, it was like oh, it's fun to listen to, but I cant really remember more than that.
Netherlands . I never really was into that kind of music, but I remember most of my friends listened to it.
Exactly, I was never into that kind of music, but my friends were, I would go the concerts with them and have a blast but when I was back home, that's not the music I was gonna listen to.
Haha, I saw them live at a festival as well for the same reason! I recall that the singer asked for weed to the crowd and at the end of the show someone throw a gram on the stage
haha, that is pretty cool. I didnt see them live, I was just talking of other random concerts I've been too.
Ah ok, yeah I saw lots of alt rock stuff as well, mostly at festivals because friends wanna see it. Ah well, they rarely have a whole day of music I wanna see anyway, so I have no problem with it Haha yeah, dutch punky stuff
Schatje waarom ben je een tienerhoer? Yeah, I remember Guano Apes, cool songs were Open Your Eyes and Lord of the Boards, but don't know more than those cause those were the ones shown on tv.
