Both sisters have previously sung on the trio The Honeys (along with their cousin Sandra Glantz/Ginger Blake), a girl band which was formed in the late [[TheFifties fifties]] and later got affiliated with Music/TheBeachBoys (mostly through Marilyn's relationship with Music/BrianWilson who also produced some of their songs). As surfing went out of vogue in the late sixties, Ginger left the band to resume solo activities and the remaining sisters formed Spring in the early seventies. Again, Brian produced some of their songs, and their self-titled debut (and sole) album was released in 1972, showcasing psychedelic pop mixed with Sunshine Pop which fitted the work of The Beach Boys' {{Music/Sunflower}}. After the band changed their name to American Spring, they went dormant until 1977 where they recorded new songs along with Beach Boys bodyguard Rocky Pampling. However, personal issues related to the divorce of Marilyn and Brian caused American Spring to become inactive again.

!!Discography:
* 1973 - ''Spring'' (later reissued as ''American Spring'')

!!Their work contains examples of:
* BandOfRelatives: Marilyn and Diane are sisters.
* TheCoverChangesTheGender: "Good Time" is a song originally written and recorded in 1970 by Music/TheBeachBoys but that version was never released until their 1977 album ''Music/TheBeachBoysLoveYou''. The song was first released by Spring in their self-titled album.The Beach Boys version has girlfriends named Penny and Betty while the Spring version has boyfriends named Eddy and Orion.
* CoverVersion: Their sole album contains covers of Music/TheBeachBoys, Music/CaroleKing, Pee Wee King, Tommy Roe, Delaney & Bonnie, and The Shirelles.

* FaceOnTheCover: The first release of Spring's self-titled album features a strange sculpture of what appears to be Marilyn while the American Spring reissue features both Marilyn and Diane.
* GirlGroup: Diane and Marilyn come from The Honeys which were originally a female counterpart to The Beach Boys. Once again, they mostly provided vocals on their sole album (though Diane wrote some songs which would later be recorded by The Beach Boys).
* RearrangeTheSong: Some songs off the band's self-titled album were written by Music/BrianWilson for The Beach Boys and would later appear on albums such as ''Music/TheBeachBoysLoveYou'' (such is the case of "Good Time").

* SpecialGuest: Their self-titled album features Beach Boys Brian Wilson and Music/CarlWilson, as well as The Beach Boys' then-manager Jack Rieley.
* UpdatedReRelease: Their self-titled album was rereleased in 1989, along with tracks recorded in the late seventies, under the title ''Spring...Plus''.
