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

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

large scale and we’re overjoyed to provide them to you in a neatly-assembled “end-of-the-decade”
compilation!
