Dirty Scavenger
Dirty Scavenger spent her late teenage years living on the streets, scavenging for food using music, & developing her vocal, guitar & songwriting skills.
Dirty Scavenger's music is dark, raw, and full of angst. Influenced by Jo's many life experiences and by some of the greatest rock bands of all time, she writes songs with dark melodic guitar riffs and deep and meaningful, soulful lyrics, and conveys them with precision on the guitar and powerful raw vocals. Often described by many as mesmerizing to watch.
