The Pointer Sisters

Genres : '70s, '80s

After performances in New York clubs, they hit it big in 1977 with the soft disco cuts “Native New Yorker” and “Easy Come, Easy Go.” Their music had a subtle Caribbean feel, and while their U.S. hits soon dried up, they had a few more hits in the U.K. before the group fell apart.
