Price was recruited to All About Eve in 1987, during the recording of their first album. He did play on the majority of songs, but others featured the Mission's Mick Brown. He remained with the band and featured on their next three albums until they split up in 1993.

In 1997, Price joined Del Amitri. He toured extensively with them and appears on the 2002 album Can You Do Me Good? and the Top 40 hit singles "Don't Come Home Too Soon" (1998), "Cry to Be Found" (1998) and "Just Before You Leave" (2002). All About Eve reunion
Price played the drums for the All About Eve reunion tour in 1999, but he stayed with Del Amitri, and so All About Eve carried on without him, initially touring acoustically and then recruiting a series of other drummers. See also
