Here's a list of some female fronted American bands from this century. I have them all on physical media (mostly vinyl). Against the Current, Black Road, Cannons, Cilver, Concrete Castles, Diamante, Die Spitz, Dianthus, Dogma (No one knows where they're from), Dorothy, Grace Potter, Hail Sagan, The Haunt, Huntress, Hydrogyn, Icon For Hire, In This Moment, Jess and the Ancient Ones, Khruangbin, L.A. Witch, The Last Internationale, Liliac, Lilith Czar, Pacifica, Phantogram, Poppy, Ruby the Hatchet, Scarlet Sails, Speed of Light, Stitched Up Heart, Thunderpussy.
Oh my, what a list! Wish I recognized more than I do. I'm not as familiar with Grace Potter as I should be! Not a big fan (yet) of Poppy. Liliac is fine but their more recent stuff is sort of meh. Some of those names like Pacifica, Lilith Czar I do recognize but know nothing about them. The rest I'll have to look into!
Hope you can see her at some point, They play bigger venues now. I saw her first time in Burlington, VT, the venue held a couple hundred at best. She was mesmerizing.
The Pretty Reckless started in 2008. Flyleaf in 2002. Eva Under Fire in 2015. Orianthi in 2005. ZZ Ward first LP in 2012 but started performing at 12 yrs old. Can't forget Dorothy! So many more to add. I have never been able to make best of lists, top 5/10 lists ever. I have favorites, but never considered music as a competition. It either moves me, or it doesn't. 🤷♂️
Ahhh, I forgot Eva Under Fire! I like them. Haven't heard of the others so I'll look them up. Like I said, I'm just not familiar enough with The Pretty Reckless, yet! But I will be soon!
Deep Sea Diver, Japanese Breakfast and Haim. If you want to see the real Mother of Grunge check out a band called Bam Bam.
I JUST started listening to Japanese Breakfast! I'll check out the other two, thank you!

Too bad about Lizzy Hale not making the cut. I think she has the best voice of all those mentioned.
She's the best for sure! Still on my bucket list to go see her.

Vintage additions: Jefferson Airplane, Big Brother and The Holding Company and Mother's Finest.
Nothing beats Janis!
I've heard of Alabama Shakes, but none of the others. (I am very, very old.)
