The Bangles
"Manic Monday" performers
The Bangles is an American pop-rock band formed in Los Angeles in the early 1980s, known for hits like "Walk Like an Egyptian" and "Manic Monday." The all-female group helped define the jangly guitar sound of 1980s radio pop.
I had The Bangles poster on my wall in high school.
