The Story

Formed1982OriginUnited StatesGenrerhythm and blues, soulLabelColumbia RecordsMembersMartha Wash, Izora Armstead

Picture a stormy night where the skies open up and the music turns electric—enter The Weather Girls, the iconic duo of Martha Wash and Izora Armstead. Originating from the vibrant scene of the U.S., they first captivated audiences as Two Tons O' Fun, lending their powerhouse vocals as backup to disco legend Sylvester. With a name change to The Weather Girls, they unleashed the unforgettable anthem "It's Raining Men," a track that became synonymous with celebration and empowerment. Blending rhythm and blues with soul, they carved out a unique niche in the music landscape, leaving behind a catalog that still resonates. Their infectious energy and unforgettable melodies remind us that, like a perfect storm, some music is just meant to pour down and uplift us all.
