Nurith NupurJoan Jett
Frontwoman for the band ‘The Runaways’, Joan Jett is considered a pioneer in the male-dominated music industry. She started performing with her band at the young age of 15 with her band of fellow female musicians. The young group was shunned by audiences and critics alike but went on to become a punk rock icon. Her shaggy hairdo and raggedy punk clothing made her a style icon as well as a rock influencer in an era where disco music was prevalent. The style and music helped revolutionize and define the rock and roll era.
