Female-fronted pop-rock can be a bit of a novelty: the sort of disposable mainstream fodder we heard too much of earlier this decade. But in the right hands, it’s a powerful art form — both visceral and candy-coated, personal and party-ready. This San Francisco act capitalizes on the genre’s split personality through glossy pop songs driven by Ana Isabel’s incisive vocals.
