2015 was a great year for women in music. Specifically, for women who front a band\u00a0as both a singer and guitarist. While we’ve reached a point where it’s not totally necessary to point and shout every time we find an amazing band \u00a0led by a female musician (it’s becoming one of the best trends in music); it feels pretty good to remind everyone how much girls rocked this year. So, here’s a list of the\u00a0best frontwomen who released albums in 2015, ranked alphabetically.<\/p>\n

Alicia Bognanno <\/b>(of Bully<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Feels Like<\/em> (June 23, 205)<\/span><\/p>\n

Bully released their debut album this summer, the tough-but-tender Feels Like<\/a>.<\/em>\u00a0The Nashville band is led by vocalist\/guitarist Alicia Bognanno, who previously studied\u00a0audio engineering at\u00a0Steve Albini’s studio. She’s just as great\u00a0when it comes to recording her own music –\u00a0Feels Like<\/em> was recorded live in a few takes, and her brutal, raw vocals are the highlight of the record.<\/p>\n
