As usual, I'm quite behind the times. Didn't even know these guys existed until last week. Shows what I know...

Their first album has been on repeat all week.
So, I was trying to think of a worthy and momentous way to close out this (truthfully) spontaneous celebration of women in music, but I eventually came to the conclusion that I'd like to think we do a pretty good job on a daily basis exposing the several people that listen to many females of past, present, and future. That said, these past few weeks have still been a lot of fun, and a well deserved showcase.
Somehow, we've yet to feature Ms. Prass. In all truthfulness, I've loved her debut, but something is still lacking that I can't quite put my finger on. I'm stingy with my stars, but I'd still give it at least an 8/10. Here she is just recently down in Austin playing a stipped down number from her new one.
2015; like 2 weeks ago
EDIT: holy crap, I thought her guitarist was playing a right handed guitar with the strings reversed, like you do, but no, he's just playing it upside down. who does that!?
I picked up Ms. Khan's debut not too long ago. I've listened to it a handful of times, and each time I do, I think I should be listening to it much more.

These Wisconsinites(?)(!) have a nice little thing going on and showcase their musical flexibility a bit here.

I haven't followed Kim Gordon very closely, but I'm intrigued by her new book. And there's no question she knows how to rock.

In this 2014 performance, she plays with members of Nirvana at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Instead of wondering if when we were going to play some Karen O, let's just do it now.

(For some reason, the video starts over, sans audio. Whatever.)
And one more for funsies!
In what I'm told was the only real upset of the night, Beck takes home the Golden Glove for Album of the Year. I still feel Sea Change is the superior album in almost every way, but whatever. One more for the shelf for the musician-poet who transcends genres even as he re-invents them.

This unassuming young woman has some extremely advanced songwriting skills. I've been going through her first couple albums repeatedly.
These kids are long overdue their spot on the .org's front page.
Hmm, that venue looks familiar...
