The epitome of the quieter, coffee-table side of singer/songwriter electronica and trip-hop, Olive was formed by producers Tim Kellett and Robin Taylor-Firth (former members of, respectively, <a href="spotify:artist:1fa0cOhromAZdq2xRA4vv8">Simply Red</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:4tNxq9NGKTKaX8OkZBLgf0">Nightmares on Wax</a>) with vocalist Ruth-Ann Boyle. Kellett connected with Boyle while playing keyboards for a live incarnation of <a href="spotify:artist:7fh7bwX9qV60tLxxsp9bTe">the Durutti Column</a> (he manipulated her tape-looped vocals while on-stage), and asked her to join him in a new recording project. With Kellett writing lyrics and the addition of Taylor-Firth, the trio recorded three songs and found plenty of labels ready to bid for their services. <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22RCA+Records%22">RCA Records</a> won out and released "You're Not Alone" in 1995. Though it took almost a year to catch on with British audiences, the single eventually hit number one and sold half-a-million copies. America proved passingly fond of the track as well, making a home near the Top 40 for it. Their second album, Trickle, arrived in 2000 on <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Maverick+Records%22">Maverick Records</a>. ~ John Bush, Rovi
