Description

Goldfrapp are a British electronic music group known for their visual theatrics and contribution to the popularization of electronic dance music. The band was formed in 1999 in London, England, and consists of Alison Goldfrapp (vocals/synthesizer) and Will Gregory (synthesizer).

Despite favourable reviews and a shortlisting for the Mercury Prize, the ambient sound of their 2000 debut album Felt Mountain was a commercial failure. Goldfrapp's second album Black Cherry, which incorporated glam rock and synthpop into their music, was released in 2003. The album experienced success across nightclubs in North America and influenced the dance-oriented sound of their third album Supernature. Supernature took Goldfrapp's work further into glam rock and dance music, and enjoyed international chart success. Supernature produced three number one U.S. dance singles, and was nominated for "Best Electronic/Dance Album" at the 49th Grammy Awards. Their most recent album, Seventh Tree, was released in 2008.
