Music | Female singer-songwriters №20: The 50 top female singer-songwriters according to The Telegraph

Sporadically, I presented a female singer-songwriter that came to my mind right there and then, for whatever reason. The choices had absolutely nothing to do with any Top list. Then I found The Telegraph list. These female singer-songwriters come in no particular Top 50 order, I assume or at least hope, and this is a great reminder list. “Oh, YES, yes, her! She is good!” “That’s right! How could I forget?!” “Umm, yes, I was meaning to …” “Never heard of, but OK, let’s find out.” “Really?!” No Top list is ever perfect in everyone’s eyes, or for that matter ears, but it is a start for exploration. Any music provider or your own music collection is your next stop.
