The Mint Juleps are a six-piece all-female a cappella/pop group from the east end of London. The group, who first gained notice in 1986,[1] consists of four sisters: Sandra, Debbie, Lizzie and Marcia Charles, who were joined by two school friends, Julie Isaac and Debbie Longworth.[2] Before they were signed by Stiff Records, they had gained experience touring with Sister Sledge,[1] Billy Bragg, Kool & the Gang, Lenny Henry, Shalamar, Fine Young Cannibals and they had sung back-up for Bob Geldof, the Belle Stars, Alison Moyet, Al Green, Peter Gabriel and Dr. Feelgood.[3] Their debut album, One Time, was issued on Stiff Records in 1985.[4][5] Two of their singles charted on the UK Singles Chart, the covers "Only Love Can Break Your Heart" (No. 62) in 1986 and "Every Kinda People" (No. 58) in 1987.[6] In 1994, the album Round Our Way saw a release in both the UK and US.[7][8]

In December 1988, the group appeared as a cappella singing angels in the BBC Christmas special, Billy's Christmas Angels.[9] In 1990, they appeared in Spike Lee's television documentary, Do It Acapella.[10]

The group also provided lead and backing vocals on Mickey Hart's Mystery Box, which was released in 1996.[11][12]
