Tracey Thorn is an English singer and songwriter, known for her soulful vocals and introspective lyrics. Born on September 26, 1962 in Brookmans Park, Hatfield, Hertfordshire, England, she has made a significant impact on the music industry.
With a career spanning several decades, Tracey Thorn has collaborated with various artists and bands such as Everything But The Girl, Saint Etienne, and Beth Orton. Her unique sound combines elements of pop, electronic music, and folk.
In 2009, Tracey Thorn married musician Ben Watt. Together they have created beautiful music that resonates with audiences worldwide. With influences ranging from The Blue Nile to Goldfrapp, her discography showcases her versatility as an artist.

Caroline Records is a renowned music label that has had an interesting history. Originally established as a European offshoot of Virgin in the 1970s, it was later revived in the 1980s as a distributor and pseudo-indie label under Virgin/EMI. In 2013, Universal Music brought back the brand through Capitol Music Group. Caroline Records serves as a label for various releases bearing the *Caroline* or *Caroline Records* brands, as well as fulfilling distributor and other company roles.

The catalog number formats used by Caroline have varied over time, with prefixes like *CAROL* and *CAR*. It is important to use these numbers exactly as they appear on the release to avoid any confusion. In recent years, Caroline also adopted the standard EMI numbering system alongside their CAROL-prefix numbers.

Similar to Island Records, Caroline has been inconsistent about incorporating the word "Records" into their logos and contact information throughout their history. However, on Discogs it is considered correct to always refer to them as *Caroline Records*, even if "Records" is not present. The oldest logo of Caroline was reintroduced for several new releases in the mid-2010s. While it may be more appropriate to omit "Records" from their name now, there are too many releases associated with this label to make such edits at this point.

It is hard to find a recent decade where Tracey Thorn's voice and song-writing has not been influential and in celebration, Caroline release a new Tracey Thorn double-compilation album entitled 'Solo: Songs And Collaborations 1982-2015'.  The album is a snapshot of a varied and acclaimed career, and vividly highlights the contrast between the introspective, acoustic songs beginning with her feted minimalist 1982 debut 'A Distant Shore', and the more outgoing, electronic music which saw Tracey soundtracking nights on the dancefloor in the wake of Everything But The Girl's 90s global smash 'Missing'. After a self-imposed hiatus to start a family, Thorn returned in 2007 with the glittering folk-disco of 'Out of the Woods', her first solo album for twenty-five years. The more stripped-back 'Love And Its Opposite' followed in 2010 and 'Tinsel and Lights' her alternative Christmas record was released in 2012, all three were recorded with producer Ewan Pearson.
