Answer: Wanda, Sheila, Jeanette and Pamela

While Wanda, Sheila, and Jeanette have usually been the 'core' of the group, sister Pamela has stepped in for Jeanette when needed. Also, in the early 1970s, a cousin, Theresa Davis, substituted for Jeanette. They started their career as The Heavenly Sunbeams, and later became The Hutchinson Sunbeams.

"Smile", with its cheerful, upbeat melody, was featured on the "Sunbeam" LP, which was released in 1978.
