I’d say around 75-80% of what I listen to nowadays are solo female acts, entirely female groups, or female-fronted groups. I’m including groups that have part-female vocals in that, like, say, My Bloody Valentine or Sonic Youth.

Checking out just my _current_ playlist, I see:  
Lush  
The Big Moon  
Skating Polly  
Aurora  
Cocteau Twins  
Siouxsie and the Banshees  
Shelleyan Orphan  
Ruby  
Gaelynn Lea  
Meg Myers  
Caroline Polachek  
Garbage  
Cranes  
Taylor Swift  
BLΛƆKPIИK  
Sigrid  
Kælan Mikla  
Kate Nash
