After the demise of Dutch AOR band Lucifer (1972-1978), best known for their Dutch hit 'House For Sale' (#4 in the Dutch Top 40 in 1975), singer Margriet Eshuijs (born Zaandam, Netherlands, 14 October 1952) embarked on a solo career under her own name. She released her first album (and the five singles taken from it) simply as Margriet Eshuijs, but between 1981 and 1991 she used the moniker Margriet Eshuijs Band, to do more justice to her 'band sound' and the musicians who backed her. Only two albums were released under this band name: 'Right On Time' (1981) and 'Eye To Eye' (1982). The Margriet Eshuijs Band's only Dutch chart success was 'Black Pearl', which hit #13 in the Dutch Top 40 in February 1982. From 1991 onwards Eshuijs mostly recorded and performed as Margriet Eshuijs again. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Margriet+Eshuijs+Band">Read more on Last.fm</a>.
