Everything but the Girl (occasionally referred to as EBTG) are an English musical duo formed in Kingston upon Hull in 1982, consisting of lead singer and occasional guitarist Tracey Thorn and guitarist, keyboardist, producer and singer Ben Watt. hey have had four top ten singles and twelve top forty singles in the UK. Until 2022, the band were inactive, and have not performed publicly since 2000. After the group’s disbandment, Thorn and Watt released solo albums, and had indicated that it was unlikely they would ever record together again as Everything But the Girl. However, on November 2, 2022, Thorn announced on Twitter that a new Everything But The Girl album had been recorded and would be released in spring 2023. - wikipedia
