Tuesday, March 18, 2008

goldfrappFollowing the release of their critically-acclaimed fourth album Seventh Tree, Goldfrapp will perform at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in Indio, CA on April 25.

In praise of a recent sold-out show at Union Chapel in London, The Observer said, “Alison’s voice ranges from breathy to soaring, redemptive. This is bold stuff.”

Goldfrapp will also appear on “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno” on April 22 and KCRW’s “Morning Becomes Eclectic” on April 23.
Seventh Tree is available now on Mute Records. The new album, which debuted at number two on the U.K. album charts, arrives on the heels of Goldfrapp’s third album, Supernature, which enjoyed international chart success selling over one million copies worldwide and earning two GRAMMY® nominations. Conceived as a sensual counterpoint to the pulsating glitterball glamour of Supernature, Seventh Tree features 10 new original tracks, written and produced by Alison Goldfrapp and Will Gregory and recorded at their studio deep in the English countryside. Seventh Tree’s first single “A&E” is available now for download and purchase in stores.

Called “languorous and spell-binding” by The New York Times, Goldfrapp are widely acknowledged for their uncompromising aesthetic. Equally renowned for the self-created visual theatrics of their live performances, Goldfrapp embody an ambitious inventiveness that Blackbook calls “textural soundscapes and a performance-art live spectacular.”

Goldfrapp’s debut album Felt Mountain was released in 2000 to widespread acclaim and was shortlisted for the prestigious Mercury Prize in 2001. Goldfrapp’s second album Black Cherry followed in 2003 and marked a stylistic departure from its predecessor. In 2005, Goldfrapp returned with the critically-acclaimed and GRAMMY®-nominated album Supernature.
