Background notes

Archive material and source history

Olive formed in London in the mid-1990s around vocalist Ruth-Ann Boyle and producer Tim Burgess. Their self-titled debut album arrived in 1995, anchored by the single 'You're Not Alone,' which found an audience with its atmospheric production and Boyle's distinctive voice. The band's lineup included guitarist Matt de Salvo, bassist Rob Taylor, and drummer Steve Sidelnyk.

A second album, 'Trickster,' followed in 2000 but didn't match the commercial reach of their debut. The group went on hiatus not long after. They briefly reunited in 2015 for some shows and a new single called 'Miracle.' Songs like 'All You Ever Needed' and 'Falling' capture the moody, melodic quality that defined their work.
