Welcome to my site about female singer/songwriters. For some years I have been listen a lot to female artists so this is my tribute to all the female singers that I have enjoyed over the years. I am at this moment redesigning, updating and adding more stuff to this site. If you have some tips or ideas so e-mail me. IntroductionI start my introduction in the late 1980ies when there was a wave of female singer/songwriters that followed after Suzanne Vega had hit with 'Luka'. This would be the start of the wave that still are going on but the first after Suzanne Vega was Julia Fordham, Sam Brown, Sam Phillips, Melissa Etheridge and many others. After this first wave there has been every now and then new artist that has their debut album out some get lucky and gets a hit and other just fades away. One thing that I found interesting is that most artists get one hit that will sells their debut album, but their follow up album just don't get the same attention. One factor is that it doesn't have a hit song on it. Many times the follow album is better than the debut album but no airplay no sale. Discovered new artistsThere are lot of really good artist that makes records that you never heard of. I have been lucky to been contacted by some artist that made me notice them. I just want to let them all know that my site will always follow them with updates what is happening with them through time.
