Born in Belhaven, North Carolina, she moved to the Brighton Beach section of Brooklyn, New York at a young age. As a teenager, she worked as a maid and earned extra money as a babysitter for songwriters Carole King and Gerry Goffin. Amused by Boyd’s individual dancing style, they wrote “The Loco-Motion” for her and had her record it as a demo (the record was intended for Dee Dee Sharp). Music producer Don Kirshner was impressed by the song and Boyd’s voice and had it released just the way it was. The song became an instant smash, reaching #1 in the United States in 1962. The two songwriters also wrote the song “He Hit Me (It Felt Like A Kiss)”, performed by The Crystals, after Boyd revealed that her boyfriend regularly beat her. When asked why she put up with it, she replied that it showed that he loved her.
After the success of “The Loco-Motion”, Boyd was stereotyped as a dance-craze singer and was given limited material.
Boyd’s other hits are “Keep Your Hands Off My Baby”, “Some Kinda Wonderful”, “Let’s Turkey Trot” and a remake of the Bing Crosby standard “Swinging On A Star,” recorded with Big Dee Irwin (though Boyd was not credited on the label).
She continued to tour and record throughout the sixties, but her commercial potential plummeted after 1964. She retired from the music business in 1971.
