Exposé is a Latin freestyle pop-dance trio of the 1980s. Record producer and songwriter Lewis A. Martineé formed an all-female vocal trio called Exposé in 1984; he hired Sandra Casanas ("Sandeé"), Aléjandra Lorenzo ("Alé"), and Laurie Miller to be in the group's lineup. The next year, they recorded "Point of No Return" which became a dance hit. The year after, they recorded and released another dance single entitled "Exposed to Love". This led to their signing with Arista Records. But shortly thereafter, Casanas was fired, and Lorenzo quit to pursue other ambitions; they were replaced by Jeanette Jurado and Gioia Bruno. Before the completion of their debut album, Miller left the group due to personal and business problems and began a solo career; she was replaced by Ann Curless.

This album proved to be one of the most successful dance albums ever released, going multi-platinum which includes the singles "Point of No Return", "Let Me Be the One", "Come Go With Me", and the #1 ballad "Seasons Change". In 1987, a rerecorded version of "Point of No Return" was released; while the first few thousand copies of Exposure contained the original version of that song, the rest of the copies contained the new version. Their second album, What You Don't Know (1989), went gold and proved to be almost as much of a success as their debut.

 Exposé in 1993: From left to right, Ann Curless, Kelly Moneymaker, and Jeanette Jurado, performing live in Providence, RI In the middle of 1990, Bruno began having throat problems which soon turned out to be a benign tumor in her vocal cords. The group took a little bit of time off from their schedule in hopes that she would recover. But her health only worsened, and she was finally replaced by Kelly Moneymaker in 1992. That same year, the group released their third album Exposé, which leaned more to an adult-contemporary style. The album was not as commercially successful as their previous albums, and two singles from the album failed to make the US Top 40. Despite the disappointment, they managed to have two US Top 40 hits from the album: "I Wish the Phone Would Ring" and the #1 adult-contemporary smash "I'll Never Get Over You Getting Over Me" (most noted for a sax solo by Steve Grove, who now goes by the alias Euge Groove). In 1995, they recorded the Diane Warren-penned song "I'll Say Good-Bye for the Two of Us" for the soundtrack of the film Free Willy 2: The Adventure Home; that same year, the song was issued on Greatest Hits.
