Who are your three favorite female singers?

@fleschler
I’m with you on JERI SOUTHERN and DINAH WASHINGTON.

Glad to hear that you’ve given STACEY KENT a chance too. After years of listening to her, I’m still totally enamoured with what MS. KENT can do with her little voice...

In hindsight, it was remiss of me to leave JULIE LONDON off my larger list, also.

Thanks to all.  So many great thoughts and female singers.  Thanks also for adding June Christy

Lani Hall may not be considered with some of these others, but I enjoy the one cd I have that she made. 

I posted earlier but I forgot to mention this 14-year-old girl who deserves to be mentioned and she sings yellow brick road better than Elton her name is Angelina Jordan

Just found Samantha Fish on Youtube great vocalist and blues guitarist. Great energy in her performances. If you like her try Anna Popov
Beth Hart after she hooked with Joe Bonamassa. The vibrato in her voice is amazing.
