This is part of the #ThreeTuneTuesday challenge started by @ablaze.

This post was partly inspired by @slobberchops exposing me to the band Brutus who have a female drummer who also sings. I was looking at other bands with female drummers. Of course there was The White Stripes with Meg, but I will skip them this time.

The Warning

Via the Drumeo awards I found The Warning who are three sisters from Mexico. Paulina, the drummer, also does at least some backing vocals. I need to check out more of their music.

Viola Smith

This is another all-girl band from 1939 featuring Viola who it seems was still playing at the age of 100. That is quite a kit she has with those two high up drums.

Karen Carpenter

As well as being an amazing singer Karen was a pretty good drummer. It's such a shame she died so young. There is some nice camera trickery on this so she could accompany herself.

Bonus

The lady in this band is not a drummer, but she is an impressive singer. Just wait a minute or so to see why. It caught me by surprise. Jinjer are from Ukraine.

There is always more music to experience. It can come from any time and anywhere in the world. When I was young we had to rely on a very few radio stations to find new artists, but now we all have access to everything. We need to bring more musicians to Hive so we can directly support them.

Rock on!
