  7.2 And then my second favourite of all time. A quirky songstress who plays the harp and tells epic and fantastical stories in her songs.
Grand Assault's rating:
 
7.1 Florence Welch
Played to death on the radio since the release of her album, I think maybe I just became accustomed to the sound of her voice. Has a bit of a manly tinge to it! Grand Assault's rating:
 
7.1 Karin Dreijer Andersson
She sounds really angry all of the time, with a really strong accent. Also appreciated her guest appearance on Royksopp's last album. Grand Assault's rating:
7.8 I used to think the songs sung by Nina Simone were actually sung by a man. How uncultured. I should've known it was a crocodile skinned diva behind that evangelic voice!
Grand Assault's rating:
7.2 Régine Chassagne
She doesn't sing all that often, but when she does get a singing part I generally enjoy it. Her song 'Haiti' is one of my favourites from the album and I wish she'd had more to do in their recent release. Grand Assault's rating:
6.7 I just like her because she's a bit alternative and has an attitude. She's conjured some great songs in her time as well.
Grand Assault's rating:
6.8 Natasha Khan
Was well late on the Bat for Lashes bandwagon. I saw her live before I'd even heard an album by her, and it was... nice. Nothing spectacular, but an interesting voice nevertheless. Grand Assault's rating:
 
6 Hilarious over-the-top girlie rock that doesn't suck. What a novel concept.
Grand Assault's rating:
5.5 Looks like a man, sounds like a man, I really have my doubts...
Grand Assault's rating:
7.7 This band is essentially the female version of The Smiths, and the lead singer sounds pretty much just like Morrissey - dead pan and all. It's all good. At least it was until they split up a couple of years ago.

Description
Female vocalists that I enjoy listening to don't come around very often. Here's a list of songstresses that don't make me feel like bursting my eardrums with a drill bit when I listen to them. The one thing they all have in common is that they would never win an X-Factor competition. Expect them to have character and charisma then.
