Good bands with female singers?
Just what the title says, preferably British bands.
A good 60's band would be awesome but I'm open to any suggestions! |

Skunk Anansie
They're quite heavy, though, especially their earlier stuff. Try checking out Weak, Hedonism and Charlie Big PotatoYeah Yeah Yeahs are a great band fronted by Karen O. I'm not up to scratch with 60s bands, so that'll do for now
