1) Ipso Facto were a goth-inflected psychedelic garage-pop. The band was founded in 2007, consisting of Rosalie Cunningham (Singer, Songwriter, Guitar), Victoria Smith (Drums), Cherish Kaya (keyboards) and Samantha Valentine (Bass guitar).
They were based in London but individually originate from different parts of the UK, including Southend, Newcastle and Bedford. Before Ipso Facto, Rosalie and Samantha played in the Southend band Theoretical Girl and Victoria played in Havana Guns. Samantha is daughter of legendary guitarist Hilton Valentine from The Animals.
Ipso Facto appeared on the ‘BBC Introducing Stage’ at the Reading Festival 2008[1], and supported The Last Shadow Puppets on their 2008 tour. They supported legendary post-punk band Magazine[2] on their 2009 reunion tour.
Ipso Facto split up in 2009 and the members have gone separate ways. Rosalie Cunningham is continuing to write and record music and has formed a new band called Ketu[3] [4] . Samantha Valentine has joined the band Romance[5] and Victoria Smith has been working on her own music and collaborating with various other artists.
2) An esoteric gothic band from the UK in the 1980s. Ipso Facto formed in 1982 and gigged mainly around Sheffield and the North. They were a fairly short lived affair circulating through line-up changes around frontman Eb and releasing ‘Noir Doir’, ‘Mannequin’ ,’Give It To Her’ and Glass Tigers/ Apostle of Sleeze on their own Zodiak Records label

It's a double edged sword to love this band, not just because they broke up too soon, especially when they were getting better and better. But because they were such a great band and they had such a limited and sparse catalogue of studio recordings, some readily available and some not so readily available, as well as pricey, (Ipso Facto's If..... EP from Japan). It also is frustrating to know that they recorded other songs before the break up that will probably never see the light of day and songs we'll just never hear period. The live perfornances are always a test to see if a band is as good as they sound on the records, and Ipso did not fail, thier perfomances were especially exciting to listen to and only solidifies and re-enforces thier immense talent and unlimited potiential. Sorry for the rant. Had to get it off my chest. There was more, but it went over a 100 words.

I think this band were amazing, such a shame they split. Saw them live in York once and they sounded good but played one of the shortest sets I've ever seen which was disappointing. I really love all their songs, I do hope Rosalie will release some more material with her new act soon, it's been ages! p.s. I've put the keyboard player back in the last.fm biography. (Kind of douchey to remove her whoever did that)

An ex-future great band. Maybe they were too young, but keep an eye on each member's project.
