Alice Temple
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Alice Temple is an English musician and songwriter. She is best known for her collaboration with Eg White under the name Eg and Alice.
A Londoner by birth, Alice Temple has done and been a variety of things in her life. A BMX champion, club kid and musician, Alice Temple began her career with collaborator Eg White at the age of twenty. Their collaboration, Eg and Alice, released only one album, "24 Years of Hunger" (1991). It was described by All Music Guide as "one of the finest, most refined and fully realized recordings of the era, employing a much more sophisticated and romantic style than anything else out of England at the time".
After a short stint in Los Angeles, Temple returned to London. While writing and collaborating with White, Temple caught the attention of James Lavelle, one half of the electronic group UNKLE. She was then brought in to contribute to UNKLE's "Psyence Fiction" album. Her piece for the album, "Bloodstain," won her critical acclaim. She returned to working with White, and together they put together Temple's 1999 debut solo album "Hang Over", released on V2.
She had a well-publicized relationship with model Rachel Williams[1]
