Fea are from San Antonio, Texas and feature Phanie Diaz (drums), Jenn Alva (bass), Letty Martinez (vocals) and Aaron Magana (guitar). Diaz and Alva were previously members of Girl In A Coma.
They recently released their self titled debut album on Joan Jett's Blackheart Records. It was awarded 4 and a half stars by PunkNews.Org who proclaimed it a pitch perfect revival of the riot grrrl genre with a new spin for a new generation. The album (currently riding high in the College Radio chart) is dedicated to those who feel they can't stand up for themselves. It's a shout out that we can all be anything that we want to be. The band are out on the road with punk legends Agent Orange so watch out for them if they're anywhere near you.
The first single was produced by Against Me! frontwoman Laura Jane Grace and is both catchy and sadly all too relevant. It's called Feminazi.....
Highly meritorious, an unmissable post !!
