Can anyone put me onto any female fronted surf bands?

All great bands, but the topic is Female Fronted SURF bands. Sorry, I'm just a stickler and don't know too many of them to find out who THEY are would be great.

Oh yeah, the one time I saw Famous Monsters, they were playing with Girl Trouble and a bunch of long hair rockers came to the show. I heard they demanded their money back but I don't know if that's true or not. Actually they started shortly before the White Zombie split and I only remember that for sure because I was doing security and ushering up in the second tier of a White Zombie show in 1998 and I sat Dave Crider and a few friends. He got free tickets from Sean Young for putting out a Famous Monsters single.

The first one that came to my mind was also Famous Monsters mentioned by Kopper, who were a female surf trio founded by Sean Y of White Zombie after WZ split. I have a 7" and cd somewhere.
as far as garage singers

we can't forget the Suzi Quattro fronted Pleasure Seekers who gave us the garage staple "what a way to die" covered by Mummies , Trashwomen and a million other bands

The Smears also do it on there "in the garage" lp they were a great band which reminds me they covered another great girl garage group:

Thee Headcoatees (billy childish's brilliant girl band)

Good band. I've heard of the name but did not know a thing about them. I assumed they were something like the Brentwoods or bands on Rip Off. they should change the genres to Pop/Garage/Surf instead of Rock. orange iguanas said:

As long as I'm on the topic of LA female groups who might have had at least one surf song in their repertoir, the one time I got to see the Go Gos (it was 1998), they opened with this:

Technically, this doesn't really count either but it's one of the best things the Bangles ever did (and there's definetly not a lot of that).

Technically, they were a garage revival band who happened to have a few surf style numbers but they were definetly played authentically. David, a.k.a. Crazy Sheep said:

The Pandoras were an amazing 80's surf girl band and the frontwoman was Paula Pierce, almost a goddess who recorded great albums before she died.

Trashwomen and Rockdoras are the only 2 that come to mind...both defunct.

That'll be these ones then? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5l_-7dnTDDg : )

I highly recommend the FAMOUS MONSTERS' Around the World in 80 Bikinis LP... if you can find it.

surf? singing? bah...not too clear to me. Anyway some songs in Ray Daytona and the Googoobombos are sung by Rosie (bass). http://www.myspace.com/raydaytonaandgoogoobombos listen to "Sick and tired"

Ha! Great, i'm listening to them now.

It's definitely female fronted that i'm interested in rather than just in the band.

I want to hear some girls singing.

The Neptunas There's also a discussion on the Surfguitar 101 forum about females in (not necessarily fronting) surf bands http://surfguitar101.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=12285 You should join that forum anyway, if you are into surf music
