The Holy Sisters of the Gaga Dada

The Holy Sisters of the Gaga Dada were a Santa Cruz band formed in 1981. The brainchild of keyboardist Mary Jean Shaffer, the Holy Sisters reveled in eccentric, quasi-religious imagery and feminist politics. Other original members included Heidi Puckett (guitar) and a woman named Blanca.Bianca being the sometime girlfriend of James Potter who played in big city orchestra along with Mary Jean Shaffer But as the Holy Sisters morphed from conceptual entity to frequent club performers, Blanca left and two new members were added, Jill Fido (of The Schematix) (bass) and Charles Bingham (of The Satellites) (drums).

Kim Sockit later replaced Heidi, and Zero Jessephski, Jr. replaced Charles. The band moved to Hollywood around 1984. They were eventually voted "Band of the Year" by L.A. Weekly.
