    Mildred Cummings, aka Little Miss Cornshucks. A great talent that fell into obscurity, in part due to her unfortunate stage name.

    I think we can probably include Riley King in this.

    Beale Street Blues Boy King, or B.B. for short.

    Exene Cervenka, John Doe and Billy Zoom.

    Poly Styrene and Lora Logic.

    And since GB-Hack opened the door for bluesmen, too, Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf.
