Ethel Meserve got their name from an eldery woman who worked on Penn State College campus where members of the band went to school. They disbanded in 1998 after touring with contemporaries Braid and The Get Up Kids. Although Ethel Meserve never got as much recognition as those contemporaries their music had as much passion if not more. They are truly a looked over gem from that era. When I listen to Ethel Meserve I'm taken back to snow covered winters in Pennsylvania; to desolate streets at night; to rainy days in fall. Where will you let them take you?
