What is the name of the girl drummer in The Honeycombes?

Answer 1

Ann "Honey" Lantree. She was the salon assistant of band founder Martin Murray.

Her nickname Honey gave the band its new name. At first it was called the Sheratons. Honeycombs was also a reference to the popular "beehive" hairstyle of the day.

Honey was the first ever rock/pop drummer and inspire Karen Carpenter to take up drumming.

Answer 2

The Honeycombs were an English beat group most famous for their female drummer, who played on their 1964 number one hit single "Have I the Right", but who lasted just three years, forming in 1963 and splitting up in 1966.

Their female drummer was named Honey Lantree, (born Ann Margot Lantree, 28 August 1943, Hayes, Middlesex), originally a salon assistant, when they were discovered in a pub with songwriting duo Ken Howard and Alan Blaikley in the audience of one of their gigs.

The drumming on the hit single was magnified further by the group's members stamping their feet on the floor at the time of every drumbeat. The group released seven more singles in the UK, three of which reached the top 40 of the charts.
