Frontiers Records is proud to present 20 Years, a best-of collection of the works of Mecca, the classic AOR band formed by singer Joe Vana.
When he was just 13 years old, a chance encounter with Survivor’s Jim Peterik changed Joe Vana’s life forever. Jim taught him everything he knew about music and the music business. But it wasn’t until he was 28 that he discovered his voice and became Peterik’s internal demo singer for many years. Joe and Jim eventually formed a band called Project Voyager, which eventually grew into Mecca. In 2002, Mecca released their self-titled debut album, featuring David Hungate (ex-Toto) on bass, Shannon Forrest on drums, Fergie Frederiksen (ex-Toto) and Joe on vocals, Mike Aquino on guitars and Jimmy Nichols on keyboards. “Mecca” created a sonic gem that was more than well received by the Melodic Rock/AOR community.
