I just saw a great female vocalist type play at the uni last night.  The 
performance was just her whacking away with tremendous energy (and 
tenderness, sometimes) at her guitar, with her drummer Andy, who would 
pipe up with the occasional background vocal, and would alternate betwixt 
some tablas and a traditional drum kit.  She was *good*.  She was a sort 
of mix of angry-young-woman/sensitive-self-insightful-ayw/just-plain-woman. 
Her voice reminded me a little bit of the person who does "Sensitive 
New-Age Guys" in it's sardonicness, but with a much greater bouncy little 
girl feeling...and on speed.  Hum; I don't know how good a job I'm doing 
of describing her; she was super-energy-woman.  Fiesty.
