2014–2016: Eves the Behavior

In 2014, Karydas was signed on to the Dew Process label, and revealed her new name Eves The Behavior.

On 3 November 2017,[16] she released her first new single "There for You" under her new name Eves Karydas, co-produced by Chris Zane.[2][17] Eves stated the reason for changing her name was "because [she is] half Greek and it [was] a nice reminder to [her] of where [she] grew up and where [she came] from."[18] In 2018, she supported British singer Dua Lipa on her Australian tour.[19]

On 19 January 2018, she released the single "Further Than the Planes Fly", which later went on to reach Gold level sales on the ARIA charts.[20][21] On 18 May, her third single "Couch" was released, a music video followed in July.[22][23] On 24 August she released her fourth single, "Damn Loyal".[24] In September, Karydas released her debut studio album and announced a 2019 national tour that commenced in February 2019.[25] She supported British artist George Ezra on his 2019 Australian tour.
