Annie Clark, otherwise known as St Vincent, has been voted '2012's Sexiest Woman in Indie Rock' in a new poll.

The list, complied by Nerve, saw Cat Power take second position and Santigold third, ahead of the likes of Sleigh Bells' Alexis Krauss, Brittany Howard of Alabama Shakes, Bethany Cosentino of Best Coast and the Haim sisters.

St Vincent recently announced details of her and David Byrne's joint album 'Love This Giant', which is set for release on September 11. Recorded over two years, the pair wrote ten of the album's 12 tracks together, with each artist submitting a track of their own.

The pair have also announced a North American tour, of which Byrne said: "We'll be doing these songs and a bunch of songs that we suspect people will know, with a group that includes eight brass players, a keyboardist and a drummer."

10. Malin Dahlström (Niki & The Dove)
