	Girl group - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The term "girl group" is generally not applied to girl bands or all-women bands, in which women play instruments as well as sing.
		Modern girl groups date back to the late 1950s and the beginning of the 1960s, when they were often manufactured by producers or record companies.
		Girl groups appeared on TV shows such as "Shindig" and "Hullaballo" in the U.S., and "Tops of the Pops" in the U.K. By the mid-late 1960s, in the face of the British Invasion and the increasing popularity of rock music, the popularity of girl groups began to wane.

		Elsewhere, groups like this time, they were sometimes used in duets with the popular all-male soul vocal groups of the time.
		In the early 1980s The Go-Gos, had an excellent reputation as a live rock band, as well as an enthusiasm for on tour debauchery to equal any of their male counterparts, whereas the 1990s saw a return to manufactured, packaged acts marketed as clean-cut and aimed at a young audience.
		Occasionally, the term is used to describe a conventional rock group in which all the members are female and who write, arrange, and perform all their own material, but mostly the distinction is clear from context.

		The Ronettes weren't the most commercially successful girl group, but their music was some of the most groundbreaking in the field, thanks to their association with the legendary Wall of Sound producer Phil Spector.
		The group had released two LPs hooked around their major hits, Twist Uptown and He's a Rebel, in 1962 and 1963, respectively, that had some good songs on them, but Spector's attention and enthusiasm was increasingly directed elsewhere.
		Various incarnations of the group resurfaced every so often in the late '70s and 1980s, but at the dawn of the 21st century, Dee Dee Kennibrew was still leading a version of the group and had even managed to get them recorded.

	The Spectropop Girl Group Page. Female pop singers and groups of the 60s
		The girl groups sound was one of the most popular rock & roll genres in the early '60s.
		The sound drew from earlier and much rawer 50s rock & roll and rhythm & blues records, but the girl group sound had far more polish and sheen than its predecessors, mainly because it was a product of professional record producers and Brill Building songwriters who commandeered the groups and tailored their repertoire.
		However, many solo singers of the 1960s sang material written in the girl group style and were produced in the same fashion as the girl groups themselves.

	Girl Groups
		Although the 50s had its one-hit girl groups such as the Chantels, and the Bobbettes,, the peak period of what today is called "girl group music" occurred in the pre-British Invasion 1960s and was captained by the Brill Building writers and producers.
		Although girl group sound was highly theatrical and influenced by records from the Leiber & Stoller school, the productions, arrangements and recordings were becoming more and more textured and full.
		Ironically, these early British Invasion groups worshipped the girl groups, covering many of their hits on their early records and reintroducing the sound to a younger generation who for whatever reason had missed them the first time around.
