Expressions Definition
Eg White Francis 'Eg' White is a British musician and songwriter. He started his career in the bands Yip Yip Coyote and Brother Beyond in the late 1980's, leaving the latter when they became involved with the songwriting team of Stock, Aitken and Waterman and just prior to their chart successes. In 1990 he teamed up with London model and BMX champion Alice Temple, and together they recorded the critically acclaimed album '24 Years of Hunger', which was released in 1991. In 1992 he produced the debut album by Kinky Machine, then disappeared from the music scene until 1996 when he released his debut solo album 'Turn Me On, I'm a Rocket Man', again critically acclaimed although the singles 'Stay Home' (written by Andy Sturmer) and 'Do It for Myself' failed to chart. In 1997 he provided instrumentation for the sessions of Suggs solo album, but in 1999 his career really started to take off as he became an in demand songwriter, musician and producer. He collaborated with Alice Temple again for her solo debut album 'Hang Over', and with Icelandic/ Italian singer Emiliana Torrini on her debut album 'Love In The Time Of Science'. (references)
