Goldie & the Gingerbreads was an all-female American rock band from 1962 to 1967.[1] They were the first all-female rock band signed to a major record label.[2]
Whereas most female bands were ignored by the big record labels and their live performances rarely attracted more than gimmick-seeking crowds, the quartet consisting of three musicians and a singer: Ginger Bianco, Margo Lewis, Carol MacDonald, and Genya "Goldie" Zelkowitz (later Genya Ravan), were among the first to break into a domain dominated by men. They were signed to Decca in 1963[3] and to Atlantic in 1964.[4]
