In honour of lesbian day of visibility tomorrow I am putting together an article of all the best lesbian singers or lesbian fronted bands. I got started with this Youtube playlist and looking for inspiration from all you fab women on mumsnet - who have I missed? If you click on the link you can add any yourselves. If you fancy adding any please feel free it's a collaborative playlist.

P.s. tegan and sarah blow they're not on there ;p

Oh sorry!

Queen Latifah is utterly fucking fabulous and shows support to lesbians in her community but stops short of confirmation (she has lived with a woman for years)

Yo Majesty are awesome and our and proud:

I don't know if she is a lesbian but Mathilde Santing

I'm only bisexual myself but what a fab thread! I keep hearing Courtney Barnett on 6 music but now inspired to buy an album.

I'm struggling to think of anyone to add to the thread though.

Obviously I have no idea if any of these ladies are lesbians, but they were/are 100% awesome (the video is footage of the ladies who added red handprints to the Junior McDaid house. And of course there was Lyra herself.
