Mo-Dettes were a punk band, formed in London in 1979. The band signed to Decca Records subsidiary Deram and released one album, The Story So Far in November 1980. The album chiefly consisted of punk originals, as well as covers of the Rolling Stones' "Paint It Black" and Édith Piaf's "Milord". The band had a minor hit with the 7" Paint It Black, just missing the top 40.
The band's final record was the 7" Tonight, released in June 1981 and a minor hit. Two months later, at the request of Decca Records, who wanted to hear a fuller sound, Mo-dettes asked guitarist Melissa Ritter to join. She played her first show as a Mo-dette just four days after joining the band.
In February 1982, Ramona Carlier left and Jane Crockford sang for a couple of months. In May 1982, Sue Slack replaced Ramona Carlier on vocals, before Mo-dettes disbanded in November 1982.

Ramona Carlier - vocals
