THE RUNAWAYS, GIRLSCHOOL and VIXEN are usually mentioned as the most popular all-female bands but people always seem to forget ROCK GODDESS who were very popular at the same time as THE RUNAWAYS & GIRLSCHOOL and were famous even before VIXEN came into the picture.Let's take you back to 1976, when ROCK GODDESS was founded.In '76 Jody Turner (Vocals/Keyboards) aged 13, sister Julie Turner (Drums) aged 9, and school friend Tracey Lamb (Bass guitar) aged 13, all met up after school one day at Jody & Julies Dad's rehearsal Rooms. They were initially taught to play by Jody & Julie's father John Turner who managed the band and owned the Ritz rehearsal rooms and music shop in Putney/Wandsworth.
