The Tourists were a British rock and pop band. They achieved brief success in the late 1970s before the band split in 1980. Two of its members, singer Annie Lennox and guitarist Dave Stewart, went on to international success as Eurythmics.
== Early history ==
Guitarists Peet Coombes and Dave Stewart were members of the folk rock band Longdancer, which was on Elton John’s Rocket Records label. They moved to London, where they met singer Annie Lennox, who had dropped out of a course at the Royal Academy of Music to pursue her ambitions in pop music.
Forming a band in 1976, the three of them initially called themselves The Catch. In 1977, the band released a single named “Borderline/Black Blood” on Logo Records. It was released in the UK, the Netherlands, Spain, and Portugal, but was not a commercial success.

By 1976, they had recruited bass guitarist Eddie Chin and drummer Jim Toomey, and renamed themselves The Tourists. This was the beginning of a productive period for the band and they released three albums: The Tourists (1979), Reality Effect (1979), and Luminous Basement (1980), as well as half a dozen singles, including “Blind Among the Flowers” (1979), “The Loneliest Man in the World” (1979), “Don’t Say I Told You So” (1980), and two hits, the Dusty Springfield cover “I Only Want to Be with You” (1979) and “So Good to Be Back Home Again” (1980), both of which reached the top 10 in the UK.
“I Only Want to Be with You” was also a top-10 hit in Australia and reached number 83 on the US Billboard Hot 100.
