The Shangri-Las were an American pop girl group formed in Queens, New York, in 1963. The group consisted of sisters Mary Weiss and Elizabeth "Betty" Weiss, along with identical twins Marguerite "Marge" Ganser and Mary Ann Ganser. They were known for their dramatic, often teenage tragedy-themed songs and a tough-girl image that set them apart from other girl groups of the time.
