Natalie Prass – Why Don’t You Believe In Me

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!?

Liz Phair – Cinco de Mayo

Love me some Liz.


1994

Unfortunately, there weren't too many videos from back in the day that captured her as she deserved (audio is pretty crappy all around too). Here's one more classic (with better audio, and a little less wooden performance) that we obviously couldn't lead with, but deserves mention all the same.

Kim Gordon/Nirvana – Aneurysm

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.

Ani DiFranco – Shameless

I honestly cannot push a Women in Rock week without Ani. Seriously, homegirl kills the guitar, and is a ridiculously good songwriter to boot. Going further back in the catalog here, but it's all good.


1996

To be sure, I'm not sure why she skipped the heart of the bridge, but oh well.
