By Brian Ball, Host of WomensRadio Music Review
WomensRadio Music Review offers an intimate and in-depth perspective on the music and mission of the world’s finest Independent Female Musicians. Throughout the all-inclusive span of topics and genres, you’ll find everything from producers to pianists, labels to lawyers, venues to violinists and cowgirls to showgirls. Join us, as we take you on a journey not only into sound, but through a healthy variety of real-life topics on the minds of today’s new music industry leaders.




 























With so many top 10, top 25, top 50, top 100 and top 200 lists of both 2009 and the 2000’s, chances are that readers are looking for something that will speak to them on a level that doesn’t insult their integrity and won’t compromise their ideals of what “good” music is and should be.  Here at WomensRadio, we’re devoted to bringing our readers the *finest* independent female musicians the world has to offer, and the last 10 years have provided no shortage of selections to choose from.  We’ve hand-selected 20 releases spanning release dates of 2000-2009 that have spoken to us on a VERY large scale and we’re overjoyed to provide them to you in a neatly-assembled “end-of-the-decade” compilation!

Read on to discover some of the greatest artists that have touched our hearts in the last decade, and click on the download links to take a piece of the magic with you wherever you go!  What’s better than a little bit of free music in this downed economy, right?
