All I can think of is Fleetwood Mac with Christine and Stevie - two completely different voices, completely different songwriting styles but both made some great music.

Ann and Nancy Wilson - although we don't hear Nancy enough (I mean, the band had Ann, after all) - she was more than competent as a lead vocalist, when pressed, and a great backup singer for her big sister.

On the other hand, Nancy also had outside contributions to film scores and other music giving her musical credentials indepedent of her sister and the band Heart (or their side project, The Lovemongers).

I think Heart qualifies, particularly if you don't qualify "vocalist" with "lead vocalist" (again, although Nancy did sing some lead, most notably on the hit "These Dreams" - coincidentally turned down by Stevie Nicks.)

And, other than The Beatles, The Eagles and CSN(Y) - how many other bands could boast of 3 or more great vocalists/songwriters?

Pistol Annies

Miranda Lambert, Ashley Monroe, and Angaleena Presley

Ashley Monroe just released her latest solo album and it's sublime.

What about the second best selling band of all time? ABBA. Sorry for the obvious troll, but some of the bands listed suck even more (musically).
