Signe Anderson Of Jefferson Airplane Dead At Age 74

Another death has hit the Jefferson Airplane family. Signe Anderson, the original female singer for the group, died January 28 the same day that founding member Paul Kantner died. Anderson was 74.

Jefferson Airplane founder Marty Balin wrote on Facebook: “One sweet Lady has passed on. I imagine that she and Paul woke up in heaven and said ‘Hey what are you doing here? Let’s start a band’ and no sooner then said Spencer was there joining in! Heartfelt thoughts to all their family and loved ones.” Balin was referring to the group’s drummer Spencer Dryden, who died in 2005.

Anderson appeared on the group’s debut album “Jefferson Airplane Takes Off” before leaving the band in 1966. She was replaced by Grace Slick, and the band rose to fame with psychedelic classics such as “Somebody to Love” and “White Rabbit.”
