Since it happens to be Mother’s Day, I thought it might be a good time to celebrate some of the female blues guitar players out there…<\/p>\n

Generally speaking, there aren’t nearly as many female blues guitar players out there as the men, but I think that’s changing – especially over the last few years.<\/p>\n

So here are some great female blues artists you might want to check out, and if you have some others you dig, please let us know in the comments section below.<\/p>\n

These are in no particular order, just the ones I know off the top of my head:<\/p>\n

  1. Bonnie Raitt<\/li>\n
  2. Samantha Fish<\/li>\n
  3. Ana Popovic<\/li>\n
  4. Joanne Shaw Taylor<\/li>\n
  5. Joanna Connor<\/li>\n
  6. Elizabeth Cotton<\/li>\n
  7. Sue Foley<\/li>\n
  8. Susan Tedeschi<\/li>\n
  9. Debbie Davies<\/li>\n
  10. Sister Rosetta Tharpe<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
