   About The Banana Convention
The Banana Convention is a pop/rock band based out of Saginaw, Michigan. Our musical style is all over the place, but a heaping pinch of "good times" is the main ingredient. Fronted by the beautiful and talented Mighty Aftrodytee, The BC bring to the stage a cavalcade of music and fun every time they perform.
