Crimsontider Posted March 9, 2013 Author Share Posted March 9, 2013 From new 2012 album by Iris MeDent. Kind of a low key, little known by the masses alto that is as good as any country singer ever imo. Very authentic, non contrived like many of today. She's the type you see on PBS and singing somewhere in DC for various elite types. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry Mama.Another great contralto. That voice range gives a lot of power to woman without sounding masculine. Perfect for rock imo.Judy Garland is a contralto for example. Katy Perry, Aimee Mann, S. Manson.Chrissie Hynde, Adele among others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HamerHokie Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Here is one I'm interested in now, not so much due to her singing but because of her attitude towards fans and the biz in general:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMj_P_6H69g Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HamerHokie Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 While I'm thinking about it - last night I saw that 'Runaways' movie with Dakota Fanning and Kristen Stewart and it wasn't half bad. Kinda heavy handed at first, but the sight of Fanning dressed as a stripper singing 'Cherry Bomb' to a Japanese audience is too good to pass up. Fanning all growed up now, and Stewart wasn't nearly as annoying as she has been in her mainstream stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 This is good and nice rack on the guitar player. Love when HFCers post this video. They do a great job with the song, and yes, there are some very nice visuals going on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackfbiv Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Maria del Mar fronted National Velvet... saw them live in a large club back in the day. They were opening for the London Quireboys... That show was scary loud but super clean. I have to say that mixer was TOPS! I / we had the pleasure of opening for Maria's post NV project called 'Hassenpfeffer'. She is something else let me tell you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveB Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 so many. Ann Wilson, Amy Lee, Holly Cole ( killer torch jazz singer), Allison Goldfrapp, Little Boots, KT Tunstall, Gretchen Wilson, Liz Phair, Alanis Morissette, Shakira, Amy Winehouse, etc. These two have gotten most of the playtime lately though, I love em both. Pinks latest album is killer. It's basically a rock album. and it's no secret I'm enamored with Gaga's voice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
