Edonis 28,950 Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 So I've been revisiting my collection of Blondie, Heart, Joan Jett, and Pat Benatar just for nostalgia sake (my mother was HUGE fans of these women and their bands) and I was thinking: are there any modern female rock artists in the same veins as these legends, in 2016? Rock has certainly lost its popularity overtime, but in the indie scene is there any modern Hearts or Blondies, etc.? Any mainstream female acts or rising artists?

No I'm talking about actual post modern rock. Hence why I mentioned the artists above Not punk rock or pop rock like Avril Lavigne (although some pop influence are nice). And not metal or hardcore either. Just post modern rock done by a great female artist. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

xoxo cupcakke 4,781 Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 This is all I can think that may fit into what you are describing. Still kind of confused about what you're asking for, but these are some indie rock musicians whose leads are all female, and I think Poliça is headed by a lesbian and so is Austra Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
