Elizabeth Fraser (born ✦August 29, 1963) is a Scottish singer. She was the vocalist for the band Cocteau Twins, who found success in the UK from the mid-1980s to the late 1990s. Their studio albums Victorialand (1986) and Heaven or Las Vegas (1990) both reached the top ten of the UK Album Charts. Other albums, including Blue Bell Knoll (1988), Four-Calendar Café (1993), and Milk & Kisses (1996), charted on the Billboard 200 in the United States and reached the top 20 in the UK. She also performed as part of the 4AD group This Mortal Coil, including the successful 1983 single "Song to the Siren," and as a guest with Massive Attack on their 1998 hit single "Teardrop."
After the Cocteau Twins disbanded, Fraser launched a relatively low-key solo career and contributed guest vocals for other artists. She released some solo material, including the singles "Underwater" (2000) and "Moses" (2009). Fraser has reportedly recorded enough material for a debut solo studio album; however, no release date or further information has been published. In 2022, Fraser released the EP Sun's Signature, which includes a reworked version of her 2000 single "Underwater." In May 2022, Fraser and her former bandmates Robin Guthrie and Simon Raymonde were awarded the Visionary Award by The Ivors Academy.
Her distinctive style has received significant critical acclaim during her four-decade career; she was described by critic Jason Ankeny as "an utterly unique performer whose swooping, operatic vocals relied less on any recognizable language than on the subjective sounds and textures of verbalized emotions."
