Um let's see...Grace Slick, the singer for the Cranberries, the singer for Garbage think her name is Shirley Manson and Lisa Loeb.

my bf just bought me a CD, I'm pretty sure her name is Melissa Auf Der Maur, or something like that. I heard she was the bassist for smashing pumpkins for a while (could be wrong on that though), but anyways, she's a really amazing bassist, and a really talented guitarist, and I love her voice. on all of the tracks on the CD she does the vocals, bass, guitar, and just has people come in to do backup guitar or keyboards.
