The Murmaids were an American one-hit-wonder girl group formed in 1963, best known for their pop hit "Popsicles and Icicles". The group's core members were the sisters Carol and Terry Fischer, daughters of the acclaimed composer Carl Fischer. Their music, characterized by its dreamy, almost ethereal harmonies, is a quintessential example of the "sunshine pop" genre popular in Southern California in the mid-1960s. Despite their fleeting chart success, The Murmaids' sound has left a lasting impact on the landscape of American pop music.
