There aren't any bands/groups I like just because of the vocals but there are a few female fronted bands/groups I enjoy. This is one of my favorite songs ATM, a group called How To Destroy Angels which consists of Trent Reznor from Nine Inch Nails and Mariqueen Maandig a former member of West Indian Girl.
