Banderas was a female duo of the early 1990s that was signed to London Records. The group was an offshoot of Jimmy Sommerville's band The Communards, and featured one of his female backing musicians Sally Herbert, along with shaven headed singer Caroline Buckley.
The band is mostly remembered for its hit single, "This Is Your Life" written with songwriter Roger Swallow and the Top 40 album Ripe; whilst follow up singles "She Sells" and "May This Be Your Last Sorrow" failed to build much momentum for the group, and their work was short lived. They appeared on BBC One's Top of The Pops on the 21 March 1991, alongside Pet Shop Boys and Megadeth.
