I can suggest Beth Orton again.
Not sure if you are wanting contemporary names, but Loretta Lynn and Wanda Jackson are classic names, and both of their last albums are produced by Jack White.
How about Dusty Springfield?

The great Rose Maddox .......

Aw, come on guys. You can't forget the great Loretta Lynn. Once pure country but this album, Van Lear Rose ventured into more country rock territory. Produced by Jack White.

Cream your pants time boys. The wonderful Carlene Carter at Dingwalls 1981. Pic by Silver dagger.

Unlikely candidate!!

Martin Belmont too....

Lucinda Williams

I've never noticed until now how her singing style is similar to Mick's. She sounds like she went to the Jagger School of Elocution, and I mean that in a good way.

Well, I'm not sure if we're looking for just country females voices or rock too - the subjects a bit confusing so I'll go with both.

Sinead O'Connor - by far my favorite female voice. I could listen to her all day long.
Sheryl Crow
Chely Wright
Shania Twain
Christina Aguilera
Fergie
Sara Evans
Martina McBride
Deanna Carter
Mindy McCready
Danni Leigh
Stevie Nicks
Janis Joplin
Cher
Alison Krauss
Beyonce

Good observation! I've thought quite a lot about that, too.

Whats about rita coolidge, joss stone, nena?

Joni Mitchell, top of the list...the rest are way back. I love Janis, Carly Simon, really started to get into Amy Winehouse in the last two years. Now I like Adelle quite a bit. I want to get back into Alison Krauss, she has a great tone to her voice!

I always liked Carly. This one always makes me think of Mick for some reason.

chi coltrane

tina Turner

Carol king

Janis joplin

joni mitchell

linda ronstadt

Melanie

I find that there is no country influence with Tina, Joni or Melanie whatsoever. ITs pop or rock.

I think Havo means rock or country, not specifically "country-rock". Not everyone here has English as their first language.

..and her working band is today far better than Stones...

right now..LYNNE JACKAMAN from Saint Jude. Check on youtube, she will be THE rocklady. Ronnie joined her for some gigs at the 100 Club in London. Check SAINT JUDE

Yes, Tatters, Carly looked a bit like Mick back in the day. Guess they had a thing too...she told all about it!

The one and only ANNISETTE of the Savage Rose. Just watch these clips. The first one is circa 1969 and the second more recent from 2007.

I can't believe Bonnie Raitt isn't mentioned so far. Definitely one of my favorites.





Just as long as the guitar plays, let it steal your heart away

As great as Bonnie is, she's more known for her rock/blues, isn't she?

I don't know what she's known for, but there are a great deal of songs in her catalogue that
make her a "rock-country star" to me.

You may be right, but everything I've heard from her (including the clip you posted) is very bluesy. I'll check her out more thoroughly.

Yes,but that hasn't stopped people from listing any female who's ever recorded a song in any genre.
