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

On 19 January 2018, she released the single "Further Than the Planes Fly", which later went on to reach Platinum level sales on the ARIA charts.[17][18] On 18 May, her third single "Couch" was released, a music video followed in July.[19][20] On 24 August she released her fourth single, "Damn Loyal".[21] In September, Karydas released her debut studio album and announced a 2019 national tour that commenced in February 2019.[22] She supported British artist George Ezra on his 2019 Australian tour.
