This was a San Francisco based folk-rock quintet that worked in and around the bay area from 1964-66, producing two local hit records and numerous live appearances, usually a warm up for a bigger name act. Band featured tight harmony and some good original songs, as well as some very unique covers. The vocal sound was Beatle-esque, as many groups were during that time. Female singer was Jan Errico, who was also the drummer. When Great Society lead singer Signe Anderson got pregnant and left that band, Errico was reported to be considered to replace her. However, the eventual replacement was singer/fashion model Grace Slick ad the band changed its name to Jefferson Airplane, which of course went on to "build the city on rock and roll", beginning locally and in 1967 breaking out nationally.

With the the Mojos, her gentle understated voice was heard on their biggest hit, "Sit Down I Think I Love You". The follow up was a good song titled "Me About You" (which I always liked but still did not do well nationally).
