WanteD! WanteD!Mrs. GREEN APPLE

Mrs.

GREEN APPLE is a five-member co-ed rock band.

The band is especially characterized by the high vocal range of Omori, the male lead singer.

It’s really tough to sing at karaoke… The presence of a synthesizer adds depth to their sound, making them a young band to watch.
