All About Eve was the most lyrical and melodically inspired of the gothic folk bands that formed in the late 1980's.
Their peers and contemporaries included The Mission UK and Sisters of Mercy.

Julianne Regan, the band's brilliant singer and lyricist began her music career playing bass in Gene Loves Jezebel after meeting the band while writing for a rock magazine.
All About Eve recorded four studio albums during seven stormy years together and a series of live and studio recordings following a reunion of the band in 2000.
