Birth and recognition
In 1992, the success of the American girl group "En Vogue" pushed the creation of a girl's musical production team. The first single "Stay" was recorded in 1993. By September, the song had climbed to number four on the UK Singles Chart.
In 1994, the girls' debut album "Always & Forever" sold out in record numbers, bringing the singers the title of best group. Before recording a new collection in 1995, Louise left the band and decided to start a solo career.
The trio continued their creativity. The disc "Power of a Woman", recorded by them, took the sixth place in the charts. The single of the same name became a new success. The songs are named in the group's top ten hits. For the first time the team became the best national collective in 1997. Album "Before the Rain" in Great Britain became the third number.
Completion of the project
The collection "Greatest Hits" became the best-selling compilation. He reaffirmed his status in 2013. In 1998, Kell Brian left the lineup, and the group turned into a duo. The Bennett sisters were briefly joined by T. J. Arlette. 1999 saw the release of the band's last studio album, "Eternal".
