Grace Slick is probably the first big name in female singers associated with rock who fronted a band and not just sang with one.

But outside the prog universe, she wasn't the first.  There were Barbra Streisand, Diana Ross, Carole King, Joni Mitchell, Aretha Franklin, and more

And if we consider proto prog as part of the prog universe (seeing as Kate Bush is 'only' prog related), then surely Grace Slick would qualify too.  Almost anybody who's fond of classic rock has heard of Jefferson Airplane and quite possibly likes their music too.

Aawww. C'mon - I'm not that socially adept to be on Facebook......
Whatever, it takes something literally Earth-Shaking to rock my world these days, and Magenta have done so..........

Y'know, Kate is the first Female vocalist to achieve mega-popularity.......nothing wrong with that....
I fell in love with Hounds Of Love, (and Never For Ever)........but I thought (think) her music is still tailored for mainstream appeal. For that success, she deserves mega-kudos, but I do prefer lower-key vocal Angels to her.
Barbara Gaskin comes to mind as a strong, charismatic vocalist as well, though not many folks are familiar with her.....
My current 'pick of the bunch' (testosterone notwithstanding...... ) is Christina. She is beautiful from all angles, and the music she sings along to is just HEAVEN........
