The Innocents were an American pop group from Sun Valley, California, United States.
[3] "Honest I Do" was followed by "Gee Whiz" (a different composition than the popular Carla Thomas hit), which also topped out at No.
[2] The label used The Innocents' photos and name to gain publicity and thereby airplay for the Kathy Young singles.
[5] In June 1961, the British music magazine, NME, reported that the Innocents were part of Alan Freed's road show, that also included Brenda Lee, The Shirelles, Bobby Vee, Etta James, Gene McDaniels, The Ventures, Clarence "Frogman" Henry, The Fleetwoods, Kathy Young and Jerry Lee Lewis.
[6] The Innocents released seven singles after "Gee Whiz" on Trans World Records, Reprise, Decca, and Warner, but none of them charted, though they continued to score hits backing up Kathy Young.
