I remember a few years back a hard rock song called "Supernova". I don't remember the band's name but I do remember they had a female lead singer. Their video ran on MTV for a couple of months, I think. The song was an upbeat ode to her lover comparing him to the heavenly bodies. I fell in love with her just based on that song. In my fantasies I would imagine she was singing to me.
There aren't too many women making hard rock and even fewer female lead singers. An all female band called The Donnas had a minor hit a few months back. Not too original, though. They sounded like AC/DC with female vocals. A new band called Evanescence has a woman lead singer and they've had a couple of hits. They've got a unique sound with a piano thrown in and male backing vocals. Other than that, I can't think of any popular new hard rock bands with a female lead singer. I can think of a few examples of bands with female musicians, but that's it.
So where are all the women rockers? I know a lot of women like hard rock. What do you think? I think hard rock needs an overhaul right now. Could the female lead vocalist be the key?
