Women in prog

Look at the forums, there are many similar topics.

My band is a female fronted prog metal outfit. we are called 7th floor. theres us, another pretty local band named to-mera, but thats about it i think!

If you'r intersted, give us a listen at www.myspace.com/7thfloorband .  I recomend 'the somnambulist' for the true prog fans. Its 9 mins long and some of the lyrics are in another language. hahaha!

Enjoy, and please, let me know what you think. [email protected]

When I read or here commments such as this one, I just thing one thing: ¿nobody has a mother, sister, or even a girlfriend?. I mean, first of all, there must be a million of reasons for someone to be noticed, far more important than looks. Second, if someone says to me "Hey, your mother / sister / etc. is HOT", I will have to deliver some kicks... ¿seriously, you can't think of any other reason to mention this lady? ¿perhaps a more repectfull one?...

Try the following:

Curved Air / Art bears / News from babel / Some Mahavishnu orchestra / Some Chick Corea (same leading lady on the last two) / Magma of course, with the powerfull vocals of Stella Vander. Then, you could move to some not so prog experimental music, Meredith Monk (she's a genius), Laurie Anderson (I just have "Big Science", wich is pretty good), Fulano, from chile, Sigur Rós (perhaps the greatest band ever).

 

Good luck.

I like their music.  I have Choirs, and Dowsing is on order.  Good enough?

But, I guess you've never looked at somebody's mother, sister, or girlfriend and thought man I'd like to, um, make some beautiful music with her nudge nudge wink wink

Check out Mia's journal here:  http://coelacanthm.livejournal.com

And an interview with Mia here: http://bitchingandmoaning.org/archives/2005/06/kayo_d ot.php where she talks about classical musicians in Boston being stuck up.

Nothing wrong with admiring women for beauty

By far the best female voices in Prog. My favorite is Amanda Parson's vocals on Tenemos Roads, so good.

White Willow has a female singer.  Also 1/2 of Mastermind is female.

I am also a spacerock violinist, and female.  :)
