About Glenda Collins

Glenda Collins is an English vocalist known for a dramatic take on the girl group sound as produced by Joe Meek. The pair worked on a series of singles in the mid-'60s that took the sound and made it weird, placing Collins' ringing voice in among wheezing keyboards, twangy guitars, and a bathtub's worth of echo. Their records made her an icon, enough so that after she retired in the late '60s there were constant requests for her to record again. She did so infrequently, and in 2022, she finally released her debut album, Second Chance.
