Goldfrapp are a British electronic music group known for their visual theatrics and contribution to the popularization of electronic dance music.[1] 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.[2][3] 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.[4] Supernature took Goldfrapp's work further into glam rock and dance music, and enjoyed international chart success.[2] Supernature produced three number one U.S. dance singles, and was nominated for "Best Electronic/Dance Album" at the 49th Grammy Awards.[5] Their most recent album, Seventh Tree, was released in 2008.
