Rock Chicks!

Back in the day female guitarists in the rock and metal genre seemed few and far between but this was not actually the case. It may have been they were overlooked as the men all kinda looked like women with their hair and spandex.

There have been tons of female virtuoso Violin players so it stands to reason they are out there you just have to find them.

So we shall have a look at these girls from a hard rock standpoint and start with the mighty Jennifer Batten:

HERE ARE GUITAR ADDICTION GROUPS CHATTER ON THE SUBJECT:

William Dalton Caruthers Jr. Orianthi is a fantastic one! Her style of playing is almost like Santana's but with her own little twist. If you get a chance, she did a song with Steve Vai.

Dominic Binks Eilish McKellar is a talented blues guitarist

William Dalton Caruthers Jr. Joan Jett

Jared Arnott I have been listening to a lot of music with female singers, but not so much guitarists. Examples that come to mind are the girl from the Iron Maidens who now plays for Alice Cooper, and Lita Ford. Courteney Love popped into my head for some reason, b...See More

Bas Becu Always sexy when I meet the female guitarists in the bar of the studio where we practice. But never as sexy as the female bass players there.

Loz Ruston Emily Remler is badass...

Tom Armbruster Try to mention "She Shreds" mag in your blog if you can. (I am not affiliated with them in any way) http://sheshredsmag.com/

Robert Mounsey Bonnie Raitt - blues and slide - check out her earlier stuff

Devin McDaniel Jess Lewis.

Florentine Catudan Jr. Nancy Wilson was a super hottie in the late 70s - 80s & still is...saw Heart 4 times over the years.

Robert Mounsey Susan Tedeschi

Aaron Johnson Orianthi Panagaris

Thomas Fitton Charo

Scott Stirling Jennifer Batten - she rocks!

Neil Morgan Emily Remler, for sure, and Ana Vidovic from the classical world. Both absolutely monstrous players.

And, yes - Jess Lewis! Just saw her name mentioned above and can't believe I forgot about her. She's insanely good!

Kristian Kolar Sheryl Crow, I mean, she doesn't rock hard or do crazy Ionian solos or something like that, but she did in fact gained some popularity and she is pretty decent to be mentioned under female guitarists. Zoe Thomson as probably the youngest guitarist mentioned. She is definitely worth mentioning because she rocks on guitar and, excluding covers, songs with her band are awesome for 9-year olds.
