September 07 - Chrissie Hynde (1951- Pretenders)

 

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/8/88/The_Pretenders-Greatest_Hits.jpg

 

The Pretenders are an Anglo-American rock band known for innovative songwriting and charismatic performances. The original band consisted of group founder, songwriter, vocalist, and rhythm guitarist Chrissie Hynde, lead and rhythm guitarist James Honeyman-Scott, bassist Pete Farndon, and drummer Martin Chambers. This band was fractured by drug-related deaths and numerous subsequent personnel changes have taken place over the years, with Hynde as the sole constant.

Aimee Mann (born September 8, 1960) is an American rock guitarist, bassist, singer, and critically acclaimed songwriter. She has sustained a career lasting over 20 years since her early success as the lead singer-songwriter of Boston's Til Tuesday through to a critically acclaimed solo career, which has sadly not been matched by the record buying public. Her fans include Sean Penn, Tom Cruise, Elvis Costello, Glenn Tilbrook, Andy Partridge, Rufus Wainwright, Paul Thomas Anderson & Fiona Apple, not least due to the subject matter of her lyrics.
