Here's a picture of this "girl band of men":

桜塚やっくん率いる美女♂ (According to Google translate, that phrase is "Beauty ♂ led by Mr. Ya~tsu Sakurazuka").

Keyboards: Vanity Von Glow

It's been two and a half years since I blogged about Vanity Von Glow in this space. Clearly, she's been polishing her act. Youtube has a great collection of her playing keyboards and singing to various pop songs.

I like her voice in this one:



And here is a pic of her while she is being interviewed:

Guitarist: Hizaki

Hizaki is a Japanese visual kei musician (guitarist). Here's a typical photo, though you can find a wide assortment on the web:



And this video features a guitar solo -- feel free to skip to about 1:25.

Singer: Sarah Mitch

The lovely and talented Sarah Mitch (or Mitchigan), singing:



And here's a pic from Flickr:

Supreme Fabulettes

[October 2018 update: Most of the original links in this post now fail to work. I reposted some videos and changed the bio links. The videos are not the originals.]

The Supreme Fabulettes are a new supergroup from the UK. They have their own webpage (of course) and YouTube channel.

Basically, the group is almost everything I would want the Cover Gurlz to be:

The Supreme Fabulettes - Miss Vicki Vivacious, Miss Maddison Lee and Miss Vanilla Lush - have been acclaimed for combining slick choreography, amazing vocal harmonies, stunning couture outfits and signature Glee-style song mash-ups of classic 1960s hits and contemporary songs by likes of The Supremes, The Andrews Sisters, Adele, Alison Moyet and Beyonce among many others.

I hope you like this video  (or this one):



Here they are performing live on stage:

Keyboardist: Emsy Chan

A few days ago, over at Gossip Gurl, I posted a picture of the lovely Emsy Chan dressed in a Star Trek uniform. Today, I'm going to focus on Emsy's musical talents.

Emsy plays keyboards! Check out this video, which includes Emsy crossplaying a character (Nami) who is not familiar to me:



In another great video, Emsy plays the Star Trek opening theme. Here are two addition pics so you can get an idea of how she might fit into the Cover Gurlz.

Singer: Denise Russell

Denise Russell mostly sings country songs, including many Patsy Cline hits. This video includes several tunes:

Diva: Artem Semenov

Artem Semenov is a Ukranian singer (mostly opera, apparently) who nearly won his country's Got Talent television program. You can easily find numerous videos on youtube, including a few that are pop music, not opera.

In this one, Artem flashes some leg:



This magazine cover shot is the most overtly feminine pic I could find.

Check out Artem's nails (with lovely small frame and long hair) here:



This cooking show video shows Artem (about 4:28) in a little black dress and heels.
Nice legs!

Buffalo Girls

Buffalo Girls are Silver Summers , Baga Chipz Mbe and Lady Lloyd.

In this video, they cover Blondie -- and I think they are fabulous.



I can't wait to see more from them.

This pic of Silver Summers is from her Flickr page:



And here's Lady Lloyd from hers:



And the full band:

Guitarist & Vocalist: Yohio

Yohio is a young Swede who is becoming a Japanese pop star -- by design. One journalist described Yohio as a performer who "dresses like Lolita, and plays guitar like Hendrix." In the band Seremedy, Yohio is the primary guitarist. But as a solo artist, multi-talented Yohio both plays guitar and sings.

Here's a typical video:



In one new video, Yohio sings in English, so look for this talented performer on your televisions soon.
