784.0. "All About Eve" by 45591::JACOBS () Wed Jan 02 1991 11:37

    Can anyone tell me anything about "All about Eve"? I listened to a few
    tracks of theirs recently and they sounded really good, but I've never
    heard of the band. Where are they from, are they touring, that kind of
    thing?

    All About Eve have been around for a few years now. They've released
    two albums, the first just called 'All About Eve', and the second
    called 'Scarlet and Other Stories', both of which come highly
    recommended. The songs range from almost Folk stuff (She Moved Through
    The Fair) to the quite rocky stuff (In The Meadow).
    
    I think they're from Leeds (ish) and they used to hang around with The
    Mission a lot, and supported them on a few tours. (If you listen to a
    Mission track called 'Severina' the woman doing all of the wailing in
    the background is Juliet, the singer from 'All About Eve'.)
    
    I've seen them a few times, and they are excellent. Juliet's voice is
    amazing live, only beaten by Lisa from Dead Can Dance.
    
    I don't recall hearing anything about them for at least 9 months, and
    sometime during the past six months, the guitarist has left to join
    Sisters Of Mercy, so they may have split.
    
    Sorry for bringing the bad news, but you can console yourself by
    listening to the albums. 8-]

    Does anyone know what's happening to All About Eve then????  Have they
    split up?  I also can recommend their live shows, Julianne has got an
    amazing voice.
