Women Power in Music As Needed

After attending two concerts recently that just happened to be big tours of well known musicians, it felt important to highlight their opening acts a little better. One band that was a pleasant surprise, and two others, that proved to be great singers. One thing other than music in common, all women. Yes, time to showcase more talent by the "inferior sex". Did you catch the sarcasm?

Warpaint: Opened for Depeche Mode on their Global Spirit Tour with their original songs. The musicianship was fantastic, and the quality of songwriting did not go unnoticed. They have been highlighted in Rolling Stone as well: http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/hear-warpaint-preview-lp-with-seductive-new-song-w432084

Alina Baraz: First of two opening acts for Coldplay on A Head Full of Dreams Tour, and it was evident by her vocals and electronic influenced music that it meshed with the overall vibe of the night. Looking forward to following her career for future years! For more information: http://www.alinabaraz.com/

Tove Lo: Second of two opening acts for Coldplay on A Head Full of Dreams Tour. With her collaboration with Coldplay to her hits on the charts, this only made sense. The best part of her performance was listening to her lesser known songs. Loved her mic announcements of both "Bitches" and "Disco Tits" due to the shock and awe from the crowd.
