Never been a big fan of female fronted bands but The Gateway District are excellent. Been listening to their new album lots of Spotify, much better than their first.
Back in december 2012 when we did a little mini tour, we played this venue “the wonderoot” and one of the bands that played were named Ganges Phalanges, they had a female front(woman). Super solid band, I’ve seen and heard many female singers online and what have you, but this band was pretty much “unheard of” and so solid. Check them out online https://www.facebook.com/GangesPhalanges
Lunachicks for the win, but I recetly saw this band play at Isubordination Fest in Baltimore name Lipstick Homicide. Pretty awesome band. Pop-punk, so their music is flooded with Queer’s style solos and poppy riffs, not to mention I love Fender Jaguars and redheads and their ginger guitarist plays one.
Sleater-Kinney, Rosie Prickles, Be Your Own Pet, Gossip, there are quite a few good ones out there. The Slits are a favorite, Siouxsie and the Banshees
Tsunami Bomb forever. For skate punk there’s Friends With The Enemy. I was in a band called Nevernoodz that had female and male vox. (www.nevernoodz.bandcamp.com)

Saw these guys (and girl) open for Rancid and Tim Timebomb a month or two ago… Not really anything that unique, just sounds like Rancid
