CarbonStated

I am ashamed to admit this…there was a period in my life when I didn’t like female lead singers in bands. There, I said it.

Here is a list of bands/singer songwriters that made me change my mind:

Frou Frou – with soft vocal intricacies and swirling ethereal melodies, Imogen Heap & Guy Sigsworth had me at “hello”

Feist – I first heard her singing on a few tracks on a Kings of Convenience album. She has a smooth, breathy voice that’s can be as powerful as it is fragile…after I saw her live, I was hooked.

School of Seven Bells – moving, meaningful pop at its finest. The harmonies that the Deheza sisters create are other worldly.

Tegan and Sara - call it indie or not…another sister duo that produce A) great songs B) great melodies C) great production minded sensibilities. They are total musical package.

The Bird and The Bee – in the same vain as Frou Frou, singer Inara George teams up with a great producer and churns out hook laden songs full of texture and moodiness.

Gemma Hayes – I’m not even 100% sure how to pronounce her first name, but she could possibly go done as one of my all time favorites. You know where I found out about her? Right here on this very blog…imagine that…thanks Dustin!

wow...all my posts have lists.
