Since Gwen Stefani has pretty much abandoned her rock roots there hasn't been much competition for artists like Hayley Williams (lead singer of Paramore) for the top spot in women lead singers. Thanks to the recent emergence of Nico Vega, she might be getting a little worried. Aja Volkman (lead singer) and her two band mates have been creating some waves in the underground rock scene as of late, and their release of the self-titled album Nico Vega has been making some serious noise (literally and figuratively). From watching videos of the performances, it seems like Aja is an incredible act to see live. Nico Vega is not for someone who doesn't like real rock, but if you can mess with some heavy-soulful-electronic type of rock, then I suggest you check them out. They are a breath of fresh air in the rock scene, and I have not heard such a unique band since System of a Down.
Must hear: Burn Burn, Million Years, Beast

Your assessment of their live performances is dead on. I saw Nico Vega perform at a show with ten people (because Jacksonville is lame) and Aja gave off energy like she was in front of a stadium. If they're anywhere near your city, check them out!
This band is cool as fuck. Good to see another guy who appreciates rap along with rock and everything in between
