Brooke Fraser, born Brooke Gabrielle Fraser Ligertwood on December 15, 1983, in Wellington, New Zealand, is an accomplished singer-songwriter and musician celebrated for her melodic pop and folk-infused sound. Emerging in the early 2000s, Fraser first gained prominence in her native New Zealand with her debut album "What to Do with Daylight," which introduced her as a poignant lyricist and a voice of remarkable distinctiveness. Her subsequent albums, including the critically acclaimed "Albertine" and the chart-topping "Flags," further solidified her as a major figure in the music scene, both at home and internationally. "Albertine," notably, reflected her humanitarian visits to Rwanda, showcasing her ability to blend emotional depth with socially conscious themes.

With "Brutal Romantic" released in 2014, Brooke showcased a bold shift in her musical approach, venturing into moodier and more electric territory, which revealed her versatility and willingness to evolve as an artist. Following this, she continued to release a series of tracks known as the "IV Fridays" series, which included songs like "The Dead Don't Dance" and "St Petersburg," allowing fans to experience her evolving soundscapes. Aside from her solo career, Fraser has also achieved tremendous success as part of the Christian music group Hillsong Worship, contributing as a key songwriter and vocalist. Despite her forays into various musical styles, Brooke Fraser's heartfelt storytelling and lyrical honesty remain the touchstones of her enduring appeal.
