Chicks With Guitars

Their poppin out of the woodwork! I love them, many others here do to. It seems there are often side discussions on this topic in the "best of" threads but I don't recall a dedicated spot for these lovely ladies. Hope to pick up a few new artists to listen to and maybe offer up a few to y'all.

List your chick with guitar favorites here:

A few to kick it off....

Laura Marling
Martha Tilston
Emily Jane White
Sharon Van Etten
Marissa Nadler
Caroline Herring
Rachel Harrington
Sara Jaffe
Tyler, the Creator...ok, I just slipped that one in to see if anyone would notice...

I could go on and on but these are some good ones I thought would be a decent start.

Steel Panther and the Iron Maidens

Warning video has profanity as well some of the usual schtick from Steel Panther.

Happy Listening.

Kami Thompson

This is the daughter of Richard and Linda Thompson so there are some damn fine musical genes at play here. She is also sort of a late bloomer, at least as far as recording goes. Her first release just came out entitled Love Lies, there are a host of serious names associated with the record. I think it's very very good, similar in style to dad, kinda folk rock stuff but less Celtic and more toward the US influence. Certainly worth mentioning here.
