I was just reminded of the whole southern CA wrist-slitting set on another thread. These bands are all lead by the distinctive female vocalist. I don't know that that they all are accompanied by guitars, but the shoe fits, as it were. These all fit into a darker, more melancholic genre so if you aren't into that, don't go here. Trespassers does move a bit upbeat, but not by much.
Mazzy Star - Hope Sandoval branched out to do solo work
Golden Palominos - Lori Carson branched out also doing solo
Trespassers William (no longer in CA - moved to Seattle for the great weather no doubt) - check out Anchor and Different Stars. I'm not fond of their later efforts myself. Anchor is a gem. Not that well recorded, unfortunately, but a beautiful album nonetheless.
