Frequent Jefferson Airplane lead singer Grace Slick was not an original bandmember; Slick was previously in another San Francisco band called the Great Society. In 1967, Grace Slick joined Jefferson Airplane and brought with her the Darby Slick song "Somebody to Love" and her own song "White Rabbit". They became her new band's biggest hit songs, with both reaching the Top Ten, and she became the most prominent member of the group.
