Since the dissolution of the Cocteau Twins, she has kept a fairly low public profile. Vocal contributions have been made to a handful of other artists' releases: Craig Armstrong's "The Space Between Us" (1998), 'Massive Attack''s "Mezzanine" (1998), and Peter Gabriel's "OVO", as well as work on the soundtrack for Peter Jackson's adaptation of The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001). Rumors of a solo album 'in preparation' persist, but only an extremely limited (200 copies) vinyl release "Underwater" has materialized.

Was once described by a British critic as having "the voice of God." When the Cocteau Twins released their debut LP, Garlands, in 1982, Fraser's dreamy, otherworldly vocals stunned the U.K. press and legendary BBC DJ John Peel, who had the band perform live on his radio show before Garlands even hit the shelves.
