I am planning a special show on female fronted prog bands. Of course, there is Kate Bush and Magenta, The Wishing Tree and Mostly Autumn. Any of our readers here have any suggestions of who we might include?
Olga Odessa WOW - great idea !!! Of cource, Renaissance, Karnataka (if it's possible - 2010 album, it's a miracle!) and La Tulipe Noire - IT'S EXCELLENT BAND, REALLY !
Hmmm, tricky. On the whole I struggle with such bands; too much of what they produce seems a compromise. However, top of the list simply has to be The Reasoning fronted by Rachel Cohen and Touchstone fronted by Kim 'Elkie' Sevoir. Also worthy of note is Panic Room. Beyond that one ends up straying too far into goth-prog (such as The Gathering) and those many bands that are more metal than owt else.
There were a couple of side project's that Clive Nolan (Pendragon and Arena fame) worked on. Strangers on a Train (although can't remember the lead singer) and Polish singer Agnieszka Swita in Caamora, although don't know about releases from these two. Have heard some Strangers on a Train stuff and to be honest, didn't get it at all!
I know it's a bit late, I do apologize for my tardiness, but you can keep it in mind for the next time - Half Past Four, Dream Aria both which are from Toronto and Factory Of Dreams from Lisbon.
