Subject: Exhaustive list of female fronted bands Fri Dec 20, 2024 12:40 am
So I'm trying to create a list of all female fronted Christian rock, metal, pop-rock bands. This is what I have so far. The first list is bands I'm familiar with, the second are bands I want to listen to. Am I missing any? Can you add to this list? Do you recommend any off the list I haven't heard yet?
Armor of God Arsenal Barlow Girl Barnabas The Benjamin Gate Delorean Edge of Eternity Eowyn Fireflight Flyleaf Gretchen HB Headnoise Inhabited Jen Ledger (solo from Skillet) Krystal Meyers Lacey Sturm The Lead Leigh Nash Leslie Phillips The Letter Black Margaret Becker Natalie Grant Ordained Fate Over the Rhine Rachel Rachel Random Eyes Ransom Rebecca St James Resurrection Band Rosanna's Raiders Scarlet Red Servant Seven Angels Sheila Walsh Sixpence None the Richer Superchick Trace Balin Twila Paris Venia ZOEGirl
(Bands I am unfamiliar with) Aavah Adelaide Aggelos All Above Me Ancient Prophecy Asher Boanerges Deborah Divine Retribution Divine Martyr DOGS Of Pray Dominus Dominantium Don't Wake Aislin Drive Thru Society Enoch Evans & Stokes Exortta Filthy Rags Flame Imperishable Fountain of Tears Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh Heidre Hypersonic Icon for Hire Ignescent Ilia Inside Mankind Jenna Parr Judge Not Leah Leonov Light up the Darkness Mandylion Millennial Reign Salvah Scandinavian Metal Praise Silversyde Still Breathing Stitched up Heart Story of the Son Submission Red Theody Tierra Vacia Trini True Wisdom Veridia Violet Sun Voice Of Glass The Waymaker Whisper From Heaven Zahna

Quite the list! I've got a couple to add:
Omegashift is my current favorite; I just can't get enough of them. https://omegashift.bandcamp.com/album/doctrine-of-dust
Slovak prog/power metal band NONA has shared the stage with Theocracy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I0V5gw9L7Oo
EDIT: and I highly suggest getting familiar with Leonov. Them and Omegashift have easily been my most-listened-to bands in recent years.

Right on, thank you! I've heard of Omegashift, but never heard them.
Thanks for the links, I'm digging Omegashift!

Cool! I can't sing enough praises for Omegashift, I'm glad you're enjoying them. I've chatted online a fair bit with the two brothers in the band and they're incredibly cool and genuine fellas: the kind of folks you feel good supporting. They were also in a proggy thrash band called Tonka that's quite cool too. https://www.metal-archives.com/bands/Tonka/3220
Also, Omegashift is currently recording their next release. Definitely keep an eye out for that.

If you've got 20 million years... here's someone who posts mostly female fronted christian bands. There's lots and lots of them (much more than I thought)

Fountain of Tears Melodic power metal A I’ve only heard compilation releases, but I really like them Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh aka GFM Three Sisters Teenagers when they started, youngest was 12 Call their style “beauty core” Not bad Lots of growls Well produced (father was producer) One (oldest?) left to start her own thing, Magdalene Rose (was better with her sisters) B+ Silly to look at, good for listening https://www.thegfmband.com Ignescent Skillet-ish Electronic stuff My rating: B Leah Christian singer, not so much the lyrics Calls her style “celtic metal” Self promoting Uses well-known metal artists A+ One of my absolute favorites! Leans more to celtic than metal Lots of instrumentation https://leahmusic.net Millennial Reign Not all releases are female-fronted Melodic Power metal Very heavy A+ One of my favorites https://www.millennialreign.com Scandinavian Metal Praise First release is free, second is not fully out yet (that I have been able to find) https://www.scandinavianmetalpraise.com Tierra Vacia YES YES YES!!! BUY THIS, IT IS AWESOME (Sorry. Too much?) I could not believe Rumble was their “freshman” release! Symphonic/melodic/power metal, background growls One of my absolute all time favorites Sadly, the original lead singer left, the current one is good, but … Original lead singer is the one on the album VERY Christian-based. They are on a mission! A+ https://tierravacia.com Whisper From Heaven These guys had potential Sadly, they only produced three songs before splitting up in 2013 As I recall there was some type of accident involving one or more members Progressive/Symphonic metal Very operatic A+ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r5wmY4UCXqY
Added for you
Magdalene Rose Core Former lead from GFM Kinda same-same of GFM Lots and lots of growls B https://officialmagdalenerose.com S91 Symphonic Metal A favorite of mine Three releases (never heard the 2011 release) Behold the Mankind - symphonic metal, heavy on the symphonic Along the Sacred Path - power metal (ish) A https://youtu.be/6ee0ax5SzzI?si=cPaxllruwFTHDxbj https://youtu.be/0hRao4YPTPQ?si=7J7wWG6CCLsvi9AS Towne Cryer 80s/90s A favorite of mine - Highly recommended Singer is very raspy No longer active https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6yp4pDNKi0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PpmYOTohjXk&list=PLPcTOx34g9XRX31ZQwX3QA4fVp38FDz6E
And check this fun song out (let me know if you cannot access the share)
Nectarine - God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen From a Heaven’s Metal compilation from the 90s I cannot even find reference of the band having ever existed! https://drive.google.com/file/d/1vRbQeAdVwghNVHqJqTNOvZU32E_JJCi9/view?usp=drive_link https://drive.google.com/file/d/1vRbQeAdVwghNVHqJqTNOvZU32E_JJCi9/view?usp=sharing (corrected)

OK, Try again. I didn't realize I had to set the sharing mode to "anyone with this link". Here's an updated link; note the different query string ("usp=sharing"). It's just set to "viewer"; hopefully that's enough for you to listen to it.
