I’ve been working on a new playlist. Called Evil Women.
It’s actually for my friend Claudine. She had this great idea to get her girlfriends together for a celebration of womanhood. Asked everyone to bring something essentially female with them to the party – what else would I bring but music? (Or a female comedian, but I had none easily to hand… none that wouldn’t struggle, that is.)
Anyhow, so the playlist includes the following performers…
- Amy Winehouse
- Ani Di Franco
- Aretha Franklin
- Bic Runga
- Bjork
- Blondie
- Bonnie Tyler
- Cerys Mathews
- CJ Bolland
- Cobra Killer
- The Detroit Cobras
- Diana Ah Naid
- Eartha Kitt
- Elastica
- Fur Patrol
- Garbage
- The Headless Chickens
- Heart
- Imani Coppola
- Kosheen
- Kate Bush
- Kim Wilde
- Kristin Hersh
- L7
- Lamb
- Luscious Jackson
- Machine Gun Fellatio
- Mazzy Star
- Missy Elliott
- Moloko
- Ms Dynamite
- Neneh Cherry
- No Doubt
- Pat Benatar
- PJ Harvey
- Portishead
- Republica
- Rickie Lee Jones
- Ruby
- Shakespears Sister
- Sharon O’Neill
- Shona Laing
- Sisters Underground
- Skunk Anansie
- The Spazzys
- Stellar*
- Stevie Nicks
- Strawpeople
- Tadpole
- Throwing Muses
- Tori Amos
- Transvision Vamp
- Veruca Salt
- and The Yeah Yeah Yeahs
I’m quite proud of the attitude of it. It’s good for Saturday night preparations…
