The Pointer Sisters are an American pop/R&B recording act from Oakland, California that achieved mainstream success during the 1970s and 1980s. Spanning over three decades, their repertoire has included such diverse genres as pop music, disco, jazz, bebop, blues, soul, funk, dance, and rock.
The group had its early origins when sisters June and Bonnie Pointer began performing
in 1969. The line-up grew to a quartet when Anita
& Ruth joined in 1972, right before they recorded their debut album. They achieved their greatest commercial success later as a trio consisting of Anita, June,
and Ruth.
