Dara Puspita was an all-female pop group from Surabaya, Indonesia, active in the 1960s and early 1970s.
In addition, Ani Kusuma was the rhythm guitarist, and Susy Nander played drums.
When Lies left the band for a month in 1965 to finish her education, she was replaced on bass by Titiek Hamzah (born 1949).
The band faced pressure from the Sukarno regime, which saw rock music as an unwanted Western influence, going so far as to imprison the popular band Koes Bersaudara, and the band sought a safer place to play, performing live in Bangkok, and picking up some Thai influences in their music, including the song "Puyaili", a rock performance of a Thai folk song, as well as their own song "Pattaya Beach".
After the group ended, only Titiek Hamzah continued in the music industry, releasing some solo albums.
