female singer

Could anyone point me to some female singers that sing, for a lack of better words, more modern flamenco. Even to the point of almost not being flamenco, but without being fake flamenco... hope you understand what I mean. So the result is more palatable to non aficionados. And i am thinking of guitar as main accompaniment, not piano.

Thanks

mayte martin is someone I like.. she is pure flamenco.. but sings in a clear voice with clear intonation rather than the traditionally hoarse voice..

cheers

Thanks for all the suggestions! I looked at some of them already and there is good stuff. I did not know many of these singers.

Man, do you imagine playing guitar that way for 3 or 4 hours? (Lole y Manuel) my shoulder would kill me, and my back and neck probably...
