The Flash Girls are a now defunct folk music duo based out of Minneapolis. The duo consisted of Emma Bull, a noted science fiction author, and Lorraine Garland, who went by the stage name "The Fabulous Lorraine". Garland is also notable as Neil Gaiman's personal assistant. The connections that both Bull and Garland had with the science fiction and fantasy communities allowed them to have an unusually notable group of people writing songs for them, including Jane Yolen, Alan Moore, and Neil Gaiman. These songs are mixed in with traditional songs such as Star of the County Down, and Lily of the West, as well as poems put to music, including works by Dorothy Parker and A.A. Milne.

The group has three albums, The Return of Pansy Smith and Violet Jones, Maurice and I, and Play Each Morning Wild Queen. Following their third album, the pair split up due to Emma Bull moving to California. Since then, Lorraine Garland has joined the band Folk UnderGround.
