Great list however most of these were already there. I did neglect Godspeed, Harmonium and Malicorne, so thanks! 

BTW in Godspeed someone is named Norsola. Is that a female name? One of the challenges of this list is that i find gender names in Japanese, Finnish and other non-Indo-European languages to be somewhat of a challenge!

Let's not forget Frequency Drift, a German prog outfit with quite a few women in their ranks during the years: Antje Auer, Isa Fallenbacher, Melanie Mau and - last but not least - Nerissa Schwarz, a.o.

Yes indeed! Wow! I'm surprised how many women performed in some of the most popular prog acts and i never knew about it, however i haven't kept up with TG's newer releases. Added! Thanks :)

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Sorry, but Jefferson Airplane for prog is like having marshmallow rice krispies treats for Christmas dinner LOL  I'm not covering early psych and proto on this one :)

you should listen to the first solo album of Grace Slick. in my opinion definitely a prog album. there even is a 15 minute epic on it, the title track "Manhole"



That's not a bad album at all. Probably one of her best. I like the Paul Kantnor collabs as well. Somehow i just put Grace Slick in the same category as Nico. Art rock / psychedelic folk and the like but not really progressive enough for inclusion into the club. Sorry :(

However, you did remind me about Julie Slick! Totally unrelated to Grace but definately prog!!!

Hang on, what about solo progressive artist Laurence Vanay, aka Jacqueline Thibault?

She was also one of the players on husband Laurent Thibault's classic Mais On Ne Peut Pas Rêver Tout Le Temps.

Let's also add the estimable female members of Wapassou:

Karin Nickerl / vocals, acoustic guitar
Eurydice / vocals
Veronique Nickerl / vocals

Nobody really seems to give a damn about Wapassou Cry but I think they were great.

I didn't see Pascale Son of Cos (Belgium), who provides vocals and oboe . It's the first name I looked for as I adore the Queen of Cos.

Another Belgian band, the RIO Aranis, if you think applicable (it would be to me), has various female members including: Linde de Groof (violin), Liesbeth Lambrecht (violin), Marjolein Cools (accordion), Axelle Kennes (piano) and Jana Arns (flute).
