Emilíana Torrini best known for her international debut album , Love In The Time Of Science - a glossy trip-hop affair in collaboration with Tears for Fears' Roland Orzabal.
In collaboration with Dan Carey, , Fisherman's Woman, signified a major departure from her earlier electronic roots to an acoustic-folk sound; applying the ethereal beauty of her voice in a much more intimate setting akin to fellow countrymen múm's recent endeavours, and folk-royalty Nick Drake. She has a delicate, breathy and almost childlike quality that complements the quiet lullaby of her later work.

She continues to collaborate with other artists, notably penning Kylie Minogue's international #1 track Slow with Dan Carey in 2003, and providing the voice for Gollum's Song, the closing theme for the film The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers.

Emilíana has earned a Grammy® nomination, Ivor Novello and Icelandic music awards with her versatile style blending folk, pop, and electronic influences, leaving an indelible mark on a generation.
