Can't forget Ars Nova, an all-female prog band(and they're good too!)

Magma's female vocalist is wonderful too

Prog is the new punk, becuase kids who shop at Hot Topic don't know Bill Bruford is God.

What about Lana Lane (Erik Norlander's wife- we saw them recently they were both absolutely stunning!) , Liz Prendagast of great Folk/Rock/Prog band Blue Horses, Heather Findlay (already been mentioned), Angela Goldthorpe (also Mostly Autumn), Rachel Jones (sadly Karnataka have recently split up), Anne also of Karnataka (sorry can't remember her surname), and yes we too have seen landmarq with Tracy Hitchings, they were very impressive. Fiona Ford of Fula has a wonderful voice too.

There are probably lots more but can't  think of any at the moment, by the way I am a female but also like lots of other kinds of music besides prog, maybe we are more open minded?????

Tracy Hitchings also worked with Clive Nolan (Arena) on their two excellent symphonic prog albums made under the name of Strangers on a Train.

Years ago there was a Genesis cover band which toured around Quebec and Ontario here in Canada which featured a female keyboard player who did a real good Tony Banks!

Other female progers that haven't been metioned yet which come to mind are Jennie Haan- Babe Ruth  Anna Sofi Dahlber-Anekdoten and Jennifer Hensel from the German band from the 70's Octopus Silvi Lillegard-From the Norwegian 70's prog band Ruphus.

Tauhd would have been a great source. I miss her.

"She was a singer in a prog and roll band" think Moodys please.

 

Question Peter, are her initials JD?

SmileAnother lady in prog is Deborah Perry of Thinking Plague.

I've just listened to their MP3 which is available on the Archives, and I was impressed. Challenging music, somewhat in the style of classic Gentle Giant.Thumbs Up

Check them out! Any fans of this interesting-seeming band out there?

Uhh.. last time I looked, Arsnova is not all female...

Also I think we've missed the point.  SV was asking about women liking prog... more so than women performing prog.  At least thats how i read her question.

Thinking Plague... I have The History of Madness. A tough listen, but defintely not your everyday prog. I'm still on the fence. It doesn't scream "Play Me."  

Yo, P. Didja miss my Tauhd question?

The Archives said they were, if something in the band has changed since then I was unaware.  Whatever.

Prog is the new punk, becuase kids who shop at Hot Topic don't know Bill Bruford is God.

Hi Jenna,

You may want to check this site for something on the subject of Females & Prog : http://ghostland.com/ghostland/editorials.asp

You'll see two related articles there entitled:

- Boys and Girls and Progressive Rock - July 2, 2001

- Boys and Girls and Progressive Rock, Part 2 - June 2, 2003

Hope that helps  !

Lise

I would be happy to answer any specific questions about my views on prog music. This is just a suggestion but why not put together a sort of questionnaire for the female prog fans on this message board to respond to?
