Encyclopedic overview
Imogen Jennifer Jane Heap (born 9 December 1977) is an English musician, singer, songwriter, record producer, and entrepreneur. She is considered a pioneer in pop music, particularly electropop, and in music technology.
While attending the BRIT School, Heap signed to independent record label Almo Sounds and later released her debut album I Megaphone (1998). It sold poorly and she was soon left without a record deal. In 2000, she and English record producer Guy Sigsworth formed the electronic duo Frou Frou, in which she was the vocalist, and released their only album to date, Details (2002). Their song "Let Go" earned them wider recognition after being used in Zach Braff's 2004 film Garden State.
