Eternal Stars Vernie and Easther Bennett Announce Music Comeback After 27 Years
After a 27-year hiatus, iconic sisters Vernie and Easther Bennett, known for their hit group Eternal, have thrilled fans with news of their musical comeback. The duo, who shot to fame in the ’90s, are set to take the stage at London’s Scala on April 30, their first live performance in nearly three decades.
Vernie and Easther, who found fame with chart-toppers like "I Wanna Be The Only One" and "Stay," are not only returning to the spotlight but also readying a new album. According to the sisters, the exciting project is already underway, with the creation of new music being their top priority.
"What excites us the most is new music," Vernie shared. "We’ve started requesting songs, and if we get that hit early on, brilliant. It’s got to be a great song like the ones we made before."
Easther, too, is eager to revisit their discography, expressing interest in re-recording and re-releasing crowd favorites like "How Many Tears" and "Sunday Morning."
The comeback, however, will be without original members Louise Redknapp and Kelle Bryan. Vernie and Easther will instead be joined by a new addition, Christel Lakhdar, whom they believe will seamlessly complement their signature sound.
The new lineup hasn’t deterred Vernie and Easther’s enthusiasm. "We’re really excited about it," Easther added. "Stay tuned for more updates."
Eternal’s comeback has been a long time coming, with previous reunion attempts falling through amidst controversy. The sisters previously faced backlash when Louise and Kelle pulled out of a planned 2023 reunion over differing views on the LGBTQ+ community and the trans movement.
However, Vernie and Easther have made it clear that they support and respect all members of the LGBTQ+ community. In a statement, Vernie expressed her gratitude for the diverse fans and friends she’s connected with throughout her career.
"We are ‘Eternally’ grateful for the family, friends, and amazing fans who have and continue to support our incredible journey and artistry," Vernie said.
With theweight of past controversies seemingly left behind, Vernie, Easther, and newcomer Christel look forward to gracing the stage again and sharing new music with their devoted fanbase.
