Alison Goldfrapp was born in Enfield, Middlesex ENGLAND; she began her singing career while enrolled as a Fine Art student at Middlesex University. Goldfrapp then began a collaboration with Trip-Hop king Tricky and worked with Orbital, a top U.K. dance-music act, before pursuing a solo career.

She joined British soundtrack composer, Will Gregory, in 1999 and produced music such as '60s French-Pop, Weimar Republic cabaret as well as movie soundtracks and Electronica. They eventually scored a record deal with Mute Records and released a critically acclaimed debut with 2000's "Felt Mountain".
Goldfrapp's sophomore effort, "Black Cherry", arrived in the spring of 2003 reaching the #25 spot on the U.K. Top 40 Albums chart and spawning three top 30 hits with "Train", the title-track and "Strict Machine", the latter of which peaked at #1 on the Billboard Magazine's Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart; "Black Cherry" also hit #4 on the Billboard Top Electronic Albums list.
In August 2005, the duo returned with "Supernature", it rose to #2 on the Official British Albums chart and produced the #4 smash "Ooh La La"; a further U.K. top 10 single with "Number 1" followed. It's something of a mystery why Mute waited until early 2006 to release Goldfrapp's third album in the United States where it leapt to #139 on The Billboard 200; "Number 1", the first American single off the CD, shot to #1 on both Billboard's Hot Dance Singles Sales and Hot Dance Music/Club Play charts.

Goldfrapp released their most successful album to date in February 2008, a more acoustic set than the others which debuted at #2 in U.K. and climbed into the top 50 of the U.S. Billboard 200 chart. The first single, "A&E", was an instant top 10 hit in Britain and another #1 on the U.S. Hot Dance Singles Sales chart; the album includes a second single, the minor hit "Happiness".
