Your question is too specific. Can you you make it a little broader? (insert sarcasm here)

Relax! It's not as if the question was, "I'm getting my 2006 income tax refund check tomorrow, what guitar should I buy?

Besides, you have at least an entire page of necrobumpers ahead of you.

(Although, the "page 20" thing, should have given you a hint the thread's been around for quite a while).

Back to the antiquated topic. My favorite female singer songwriter is Elton John, or possibly Mary-Chapin Carpenter. I'd say Loreena McKennitt, but she does a bunch of adaptations of literature, and I forget offhand, which material she does where she's written the lyrics.

Had to mention Susan Tedeschi in this thread because of this! Outrageously good.

Jesse Colter

Absolutely one of the very best songwriter/singer/musician. Here are two of her songs as an example.


"I'm Not Lisa"

"What's Happened to Blue Eyes"

Default Joni Mitchell, Tift Merritt, Terra Naomi

There are so many great singer/songwriters that are also guitarists...I'm not sure if their sex has anything to do with it. Here's 3 of my all-time favorites:

Joni Mitchell - no examples necessary...everyone's familiar with Joni...her Blue album is one of the best albums ever produced!

A couple of other favorites of mine, not so well known, follow; I looked for earlier less produced performances to better showcase their raw talent.

Tift Merritt -


Terra Naomi -



Ooops...both of these artists are guitarists as well:

Terra Naomi -


Tift Merritt -

I think I responded to this same thread about a year ago.

I don't think any list would be complete without Nancy Wilson from Heart. A terrific player.
