She was born in Hungary to professional musician parents who toured worldwide. Educated in Switzerland, she studied piano before joining her parents on tour as The Three Hugos. When World War II was declared, the family left England with the Boswell Circus. She married, and as Eve Boswell became a popular singing star in South Africa.
In 1949, she was heard by bandleader Geraldo (Gerald Bright), who persuaded her to return to the United Kingdom as a singer in his band, which was widely heard on BBC Radio. Boswell parted with Geraldo in 1952, and launched a solo career. Her first hit record came that year with "Sugar Bush", partly sung in Afrikaans. She appeared in the Royal Variety Performance and toured widely with comedian Derek Roy, before getting her own radio show in 1954.
Her major chart hit came with "Pickin' a Chicken", a South African tune with new words, which rose to No 9 on the UK Singles Chart at the start of 1956. Her first LP, Sugar and Spice, on which she sang 10 songs in nine different languages, followed later in the year. A continuous programme of radio work and tours followed, leading to more than one mental breakdown.
She faded from public view as public tastes for pop music changed through the late 1950s and 1960s, eventually returning to live in South Africa.

Courtney Simon Deck the halls with rounds of tear gas
Fa la la la la, la la la la
'Tis the people to be treated
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Shoot the rubber bullets at us
Fa la la, la la la, la la la
Rape our sisters and our brothers
Fa la la la la, la la la la
See the stinging smoke before us
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Strike with batons and live ammo
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Aim at your head and hit your chest
Fa la la, la la la, la la la
Hong Kong police are real ter'rists
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Fast away, our youngs have passed
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Hail the bodies, burn to ashes
Fa la la la la, la la la la
Stand with Hong Kong, can you help us
Fa la la, la la la, la la la
Ask your senators, co-sponsor it
Fa la la la la, la la la la
