i object to the "worth listening to" phrase in the title. There are so many great female musicians, you just gotta open your mind to it. You gotta break the incubus, phish...[insert cliche band here] mold that i read a lot about on here. i'm sorry that was way out of line. like whatever suits you, but i'm just saying...there's so much out there, so much you may not be aware of. There are plenty of great female artists, you just gotta open your mind and find them. Some of my faves:
Laetitia Sadier & Mary Hansen: Stereolab, Brokeback, The High Llamas Kate Wright: Movietone Trish Keenan: Broadcast Valerie Trebeljahr: Lali Puna Rosie Cluckston: Pram PJ Harvey Astrud Gilberto Bebel Gilberto Juana Molina Hope Sandoval: Mazzy Star, The Warm Inventions Jessika Rapo: Le Futur Pompiste Kim Gordon: Sonic Youth
...and many mnay more
For the record i think Tori Amos sucks

-------------------- Everything is better than it was the last time. I'm good. If we could look into each others hearts, and understand the unique challenges each of us faces, I think we would treat each other much more gently, with more love, patience, tolerance, and care. It takes a lot of courage to go out there and radiate your essence. I know you scared, you should ask us if we scared too. If you was there, and we just knew you cared too.

Well i was going to start my own thread but this works fine.
A friend just recently sent me what i believe is the newest album 'Noah's Ark' by: CocoRosie - This music is amazing, i suggest everyone to check it out. so very very good. amazing album altogether.
Also i saw it was already mentioned but..
Joanna Newsom - amazingly cool voice, plays the harp, very cool almost fairy tale lyrics. beautiful music altogether
Regina Spektor - i've only heard her new album Soviet Kitsch. very good. Genera is "antifolk" i guess punk and folk. don't let that stop you from checking it out, its different and very good.

Tori, Fiona, Ani, Bjork....forget all those kittens. The one name I can't believe I haven't seen yet is
Joni Mitchell
Joni Mitchell
Joni Mitchell
My favorites are Court and Spark and The Hissing of Summer Lawns. Those are from the jazz rock period. I know her folk stuff is great too, like on the album Blue which you allllways hear about, but I haven't really gotten into the early folk period or the later rock and folk return stuff. The two albums I listed are truly supreme. Joni has a voice like no other and she also writes the music, plays guitars, keys, synths and she paints! Alot of the art in the album liners is created by her. Check her out.
