The Ikettes, originally The Artettes, were a trio (sometimes quartet) of female backing vocalists for the Ike & Tina Turner Revue. Despite their origins, the Ikettes became successful artists in their own right. In the 1960s they had hits such as "I'm Blue (The Gong-Gong Song)" and "Peaches 'N' Cream." In 2017, Billboard ranked "I'm Blue (The Gong-Gong Song)" No. 63 on its list of 100 Greatest Girl Group Songs of All Time.

  • The Ikettes waren eine der ersten namentlich erwähnten Back-up-Groups in der Geschichte des Rock ’n’ Roll und somit ein Vorläufer der Girlgroups heutiger Zeit. Das amerikanische Trio wurde in den frühen 1960er Jahren vor allem wegen seiner stimmgewaltigen und tanzfreudigen Unterstützung für die „Ike and Tina Turner Revue“ bekannt. Außerdem gelang ihm einige Male der Sprung in die amerikanische Top 40. Die Ikettes leisteten auch einen Beitrag auf zwei Alben von Frank Zappa. (de)
