Hello, I'm an expert in music history, particularly with a focus on rock and roll. When we talk about Grace Slick, we're discussing a significant figure in the world of rock music.
Grace Slick was a singer-songwriter who is best known for her work with two influential rock bands:
Jefferson Airplane and
Jefferson Starship.
Jefferson Airplane was one of the pioneering bands of the 1960s counterculture musical movement, and they were the first from the Haight-Ashbury scene in San Francisco to achieve mainstream success. Slick joined the band in 1966 and was a key member during their most successful period, contributing vocals and songwriting. They released several albums, including the iconic "Surrealistic Pillow," which featured Slick's hit "White Rabbit."
After Jefferson Airplane, Slick went on to perform with Jefferson Starship, a band that evolved from the earlier group. Jefferson Starship continued to have hits in the 1970s and 1980s, with Slick contributing to their success with songs like "Jane" and "Miracles."
