American all-female band formed in Detroit, Michigan in 1964 by then 14-year-old singer Jan(ice) McClellan who recruited Lynn Hawkins (rhythm guitar) and Diane Abray (drums) to join her. Although they went through numerous line-up changes, they remained all-female throughout their existence. They recorded McClellan's composition A New Love Today on Lucky Eleven in 1966. They appeared several times on CKLW-TV's Swingin' Time and toured extensively before breaking up in 1969 after a grueling four month tour of Asia.
