Few very important female singers are missing here :
 
Crystal voice - Amanda Parsons, Barbara Gaskin and Grace Slick (If I had to pick 1 it would be BG).
Breaking glass voice - Boby Watson, Dagmar Krauze and Renate Knaup (very close match between Renate and Dagmar. I think Renate wins).
Unique voice - Kate Bush

From the list, maybe PJ Harvey, but Barb Gaskin is still my ultimate favourite female vocalist.
I'd like to mention another special lady with angelic vocals from a band really worth checking: Shanti Curran from Arborea.

Sample:

 
Arborea are a wonderful band indeed - I'm not so sure that they would get cleared on the site for addition in Prog Folk (maybe worth a shot anyway?) but for anyone passing through here who does like women - just head on over to http://arborea.bandcamp.com/, where you will find all the releases of this artist gathered together for your listening pleasure (and/or purchase).

A Lazarus bump of a thread that's been dead for three years just for a backdoor band suggestion?


Confused
What?

Gotta love female singer-songwriters, Kate Bush, Bjork and Joanna Newsom all have garned tons of listening time from me. 

The Thinking Plague women (Sharon Bradford, Susanne Lewis, Deborah Perry, and Elaine Di Falco) are all also fantastic. Imagine if they had all been in the band at the same time; I feel some interesting things could have happened. Also from the ZART world, Dagmar Krause, Stella Vander, et al are also wonderful.

Susanne Sundfor, Charlotte Church, Bat For Lashes, etc...

Gotta love Satomi from Deerhoof and Kazu from Blonde Redhead, Eleanor Friedberger of The Fiery Furnaces, and the ladies of Dirty Projectors.

Phideaux's band has some great female vocalists. Gotta give credit to Dominique from Stolen Babies for making harsh vocals sexy.

The list goes on so I'll just stop here. I do have a preference for female vocals over male vocals so I could go on and on.
