Goldfrapp are an English electronic music duo from London, formed in 1999.[1] The duo consists of Alison Goldfrapp (vocals, synthesiser) and Will Gregory (synthesiser).

Despite favourable reviews and a short-listing for the Mercury Prize,[2][3] their 2000 début studio album Felt Mountain[4] did not chart highly.[5] Goldfrapp's second album Black Cherry, which incorporated glam rock and synth-pop sounds into their music, was released in 2003.[6] The album's dance-oriented sound was carried over to their third album, Supernature.[2] Supernature took Goldfrapp's work further into dance music, and enjoyed international chart success.[5][7] The album produced three number-one US dance singles,[7] and was nominated for Best Electronic/Dance Album at the 49th Grammy Awards.[8]

Their fourth album Seventh Tree placed a greater emphasis on ambient and downtempo music,[9] drawing inspiration from nature and paganism,[10] while their fifth album, Head First, found the group exploring 1980s-influenced synth-pop.[11] Head First also earned the duo their second Grammy Award nomination for Best Electronic/Dance Album in 2010.[12] Goldfrapp released their critically acclaimed sixth studio album, the folktronica-influenced Tales of Us, in September 2013.[13] Goldfrapp released their seventh studio album, Silver Eye, in March 2017, which debuted at number six on the UK Albums Chart. The same position was achieved by Alison Goldfrapp's May 2023 debut solo album The Love Invention.
