Eye to Eye are a musical duo formed by Americansinger Deborah Berg and Britishpianist Julian Marshall (previously ofMarshall Hain).
They first met inSan Diego,California, in 1980 at a performance of thedanceensemble Mostly Women Moving, for whom Berg danced. Berg had been injured and sang instead of dancing on the night of the performance Marshall attended; he spoke with Berg and a few weeks later asked her to fly to England to record with him.
Arecording contract with Automatic Records followed soon after, and their firstsingle, "Am I Normal?", came out later that year. The single came to the attention of Steely Dan producerGary Katz, which led to a contract withWarner Bros. Records. Their self-titled debutalbum was produced by Katz and released in 1982. The lead single "Nice Girls" cracked theTop 40 in theU.S.Billboard Hot 100. A second album,Shakespeare Stole My Baby, followed in 1983, but it did not receive much label support and did not sell well.[1] Until 2002, both albums would be available only as Japanese imports on CD, but in 2002, they were both released by independent label Wounded Bird Records on one CD.
In 2001, the members reunited, and in 2005 released a third album.
