Description :
The Every Brothers began as an acoustic duo consisting of Terry Bradford and Greg Williams who wrote songs together. With the addition of members Robyn Habel on double bass, Andrew Mills on drums and Imogen on violin, they changed their name to the Everys.

Terry Bradford and Greg Williams had been with Play Loud, and Bradford, Habel and Mills also members of the band July 14.

Robyn Habel is still very active in the Adelaide music scene as a singer and musician and is a lecturer in jazz at Adelaide University's Elder Conservatorium of Music. In 2004 Robyn, together with Teni Burns, was commissioned to write a pop-opera Olympia for the South Australian Public Primary Schools Festival of Music.

In 1993, Robyn scooped the second annual South Australian Music Industry (SAMI) awards winning five of the major
categories: most outstanding songwriter, female vocalist, performer and release on the strength of her first solo self titled album released by Adelaide independent label Round Records.
