[7] At age 14, Berenyi met friend and future bandmate Emma Anderson while both were students at private school Queen's College.
[9] In 1987, Berenyi studied English literature at North London Polytechnic, where she met drummer Chris Acland and singer Meriel Barham.
[8] From 1987 until 1996, she played with Lush, releasing several albums, singles and music videos and toured extensively through the UK, North America, Japan, Australia and other countries.
She also contributed vocals to a remix of a Flat 7 track by Robin Guthrie (who also produced Lush's early work) and appeared on Seinking Ships' debut album, Museum Quality Capture, released in 2010.
[20][21] Bassist Phil King left the band in October 2016 and as a consequence Lush played their final farewell gig, with Michael Conroy of Modern English on bass at Manchester Academy on 25 November 2016.
[26] MB3 promoted "Vertigo" with a short 8-date US tour in June 2024, featuring drummers Lol Tolhurst (The Cure) and Budgie (Siouxsie & The Banshees) as support.
The tour included an appearance at the Schellraiser Festival in Nevada, a live session for KEXP-FM in Seattle and headline shows at the Fonda Theatre (Los Angeles), and Webster Hall (New York) where Tolhurst and Budgie joined the band on stage for a version of Lush’s "Baby Talk".
[29] Described as a "richly layered, imaginative and uniquely slanted strain of dream pop,” the album blends euphoric and melancholic elements of guitars and electronica, fronted by Berenyi’s instantly recognisable vocals.
