- Became an important figure to me when I was introduced to his music, and greatly enjoyed it.
3. Kimberly Freeman
- Not quite an 'icon', but a lead singer of a band.
- Represents to me an icon in the music field, both for her music and personality.
- Became an important figure to me when I began playing guitar and listening to her band's music.
- Influences and inspires her band's fan base, as well as other bands inspired by her music style.
