Mecca Normal is the undefinable shrill and hum of
Jean Smith (vocals) and
David Lester (Guitar). Her vocals are distinctive and
throaty, sending thrills down your spine. Originally based on
Olympia, consequentially labeled
Riot Grrrl, this band has for over ten years defined the
musical stabbing word.
Not music for everyone, granted.
