Biography,Early lifeImogen Jennifer Heap was born in the London Borough of Havering. She played music from an early age, becoming classically trained in several instruments including piano, cello and clarinet. She attended Friends School, a private, Quaker-run boarding school in Saffron Walden. Heaps mother (an art therapist) and her father (a construction rock retailer) separated when she was twelve. By the age of thirteen, she had begun writing songs.Heap did not get along well with the music teacher at her boarding school, so she principally taught herself sequencing, music engineering, sampling and production (on Atari computers). She also taught herself to play the guitar and drums, and subsequently two percussion/idiophone instruments, the array mbira and the Hang. After school, she went on to study at the BRIT School for Performing Arts & Technology in Croydon, South London.Early musicAfter being introduced to Nik Kershaw by his manager Mickey Modern, Heap and Kershaw recorded four demos that Modern took to Rondor Music. Consequently, a few months later she signed her first record contract at eighteen to independent record label Almo Sounds. Modern and Mark Wood formed Modernwood Management, and managed Heap until 2006, when Modernwood was dissolved. Wood continues to manage the artist via his new company, Radius Music.During 1996, Heap began working with an experimental pop band called Acacia, which featured her future collaborator Guy Sigsworth and was fronted by the singer Alexander Nilere. While never a full member of the band, Heap was a guest vocalist (as a counterpart to Nilere) and contributed to various Acacia single and album tracks. One Acacia song, Maddening Shroud, would later be covered by Frou Frou.Modern asked Dennis Arnold to place Heap in the line up in the 1996 Princes Trust Concert in Hyde Park, London organized by Harvey Goldsmith. Heap performed four songs between sets by The Who and Eric Clapton.1998–2001: iMegaphoneThis section of a Biography, of a living person does not include any references or sources.

The album was released in 1998 internationally via Almo Sounds, to favourable reviews comparing Heaps angst-filled songs to work by PJ Harvey, Kate Bush, Chrissie Hynde, Siouxsie Sioux, and Annie Lennox. Promotion for the record included a tour of America and performances around Europe. Three singles were commercially released in the UK: Getting Scared, Shine and Come Here Boy. Oh Me, Oh My was sent to US radio stations in place of Shine.Heaps early success was soon replaced by problems. Almo Sounds cut funding for UK promotion and gave Heap a deadline to deliver songs for her second album. Upon delivery of the songs, she was told that they lacked hit potential. It was announced that the record label would be sold to Universal and its artists moved to other labels or released. Heap was one of the artists who was dropped from the label, leaving her without a record contract. iMegaphone had, however, been licensed from Almo Sounds to Aozora Records in Japan, who eventually re-released and re-promoted the album in January 2002, featuring Blanket and Aeroplane (a Frou Frou remix/remake of one of her B-sides, Airplane of the Shine single released in 1998). The album featured new packaging, all-new artwork, and a previously unavailable hidden track, entitled Kidding, recorded live during her 1999 tour.Copies of the original Almo Sounds release remain rare. A Brazilian label, Trama Records, currently claims to hold the license to the record and has started re-printing copies of the album in limited quantities. The album was released digitally on the US iTunes Music Store in early 2006. After achieving commercial success with her work with Guy Sigsworth as the duo Frou Frou and her second solo album, Speak for Yourself, Heap was able to secure the re-release of iMegaphone.In the gap between the end of promotion for iMegaphone internationally and the re-promotion, Heap had also begun to think about her second solo album, and had started writing songs, both solo, as well as working with Guy Sigsworth, however, as she was without a record deal, the songs were shelved. During the time when she was unsigned, Heap appeared on two UK singles, Meantime (a track written by her former Acacia colleagues Guy Sigsworth and Alexander Nilere for the soundtrack to the independent British film, G:MT – Greenwich Mean Time) and Blanket (a 1998 collaboration with Urban Species). In 2000, Heap sang on two tracks of the album You Had It Coming by Jeff Beck.2002–2003: Frou FrouHeap had kept in contact with Guy Sigsworth (who had co-written and produced Getting Scared from iMegaphone) and this led to the pair of them establishing the collaborative project Frou Frou.The initial concept for Frou Frou was Sigsworths, and the project was to have been an album written and produced by her with each track featuring a different singer, songwriter, poet or rapper. Heap explains that Sigsworth invited her over to his studio to write lyrics to a four-bar motif he had, with one condition – that she include the word love somewhere. The first line she came up with was lung of love, leaves me breathless, and the Details album track, Flicks was born. A week later, Sigsworth phoned Heap up again, and together they wrote and recorded the future single Breathe In.Throughout the process, Frou Frou work was an equal partnership, with Heap and Sigsworth making equal contributions to writing, arrangement, production and instrumental performance and Heap handling all of the vocals.In August 2002, they released the Details album and singles Breathe In, Its Good To Be in Love, and Must Be Dreaming (although the latter two were not commercially available). The album was critically acclaimed, but did not enjoy the commercial success that they had been hoping for until 2004 when the song Let Go became a hit from the Garden State soundtrack.In late 2003, after an extensive promotional tour of the UK, Europe and the US, the duo were told that their record label, Island Records would not be picking up the option for a second album.Heap and Sigsworth remain firm friends, and have worked together since the project, including their temporary re-formation in late 2003, when they covered the Bonnie Tyler classic, Holding Out for a Hero, which was featured during the credits of the movie Shrek 2 after Jennifer Saunders version in the film. Frou Frou saw a resurgence in popularity in 2004, when their album track Let Go was featured in the film Garden State, the soundtrack of which won a Grammy award.In a 2005 interview Heap said of Frou Frou (it) was really like a kind of little holiday from my own work. Guy and I, we have always worked together, and then over the years, it became clear that we wanted to do a whole album together. It was very organic and spontaneous — just one of those wonderful things that happens. But there was never a mention of a second record from either of us, and not uncomfortably. Were just both kind of free spirits. I love to work with a lot of different people, but I was also just gagging to see what I could do on my own. But Im sure in the future, Guy and I will get back together to do another record, or to record a few songs together.[11]2004–2007: The O.C. and Speak for YourselfThis section of a Biography, of a living person does not include any references or sources.

She re-mortgaged her flat to fund production costs, including renting a studio at Atomic Studios, London (previously inhabited by UK grime artist, Dizzee Rascal), and purchasing instruments.At the end of 2004, with the album completed, Heap premiered two album tracks online, selling them prior to the albums release – Just for Now and Goodnight and Go.In April 2005, The O.C. featured the vocoded-vocal track, Hide and Seek in the closing scenes of their season two finale. The track was released immediately to digital download services, such as iTunes, in the US, where it charted and on the UK Billboard charts where it was #22. The track was released to iTunes UK on 5 July 2005 (the same day as the UK airing of the season finale) and entered the official UK download chart. The song has since been certified gold by the RIAA.Heap released the album on her own record company, Megaphonic Records. The album was titled Speak for Yourself.Speak for Yourself was released in the UK on 18 July 2005 on CD and iTunes UK, where it entered the top 10 chart. The initial 10,000 physical copies pressed sold out, distributed through large and independent record stores and Heaps own online shop.In August 2005, Heap announced that she had licensed Speak for Yourself to RCA Victor (Sony BMG), for the album release in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The album was released in November 2005 and debuted at #144 in the Billboard Top 200 album chart. In concert, Heap performed solo, controlling the sound through her laptop, as well as singing and playing the piano and array mbira.She returned from the US, already having sold over 120,000 copies.Heap also announced, on her return to the UK, that she had signed a deal for the album to be released internationally, as well as re-promoted in the UK, with a new imprint of Sony BMG, White Rabbit, run by former Sony BMG UK A&R vice president Nick Raphael. The deal meant that the album could have the promotional backing provided by a respected major label, whilst Heap retained sole control and the team she established for Megaphonic Records.Speak for Yourself was re-released on the label on 24 April 2006, ahead of a full promotional push on 15 May, a week after the second single, Goodnight and Go, was commercially released in the UK.In August 2006, Heap performed a set at the V Festival,[12] where it was announced that Headlock was to be the third single to be lifted from the album, and released on 16 October 2006 in the UK.In late September and early October, Heap embarked on a tour of the UK, holding a competition on MySpace for different support acts for each venue, before touring throughout Canada and the US in November and December. This was her first tour of North America that included a band, incorporating upright bass, percussion, and support acts Kid Beyond and Levi Weaver on beatbox and guitar, respectively. In December 2006, Heap was featured on the front page of The Green Room magazine.On 7 December 2006, Heap received two Grammy nominations for the 49th Annual Grammy Awards, one for Best New Artist and the other for Best Song Written For Motion Picture, Television Or Other Visual Media for Cant Take It In.2008–2010: EllipseThis section of a Biography, of a living person does not include any references or sources.

The albums release was pushed back multiple times. These included Heap being asked to perform at the annual event PopTech in October 2008. During the event, she premiered one of her albums songs, Wait it Out.Heap announced on her Twitter page that Ellipses first single would be First Train Home. On 17 August 2009 Heap made the entire album Ellipse available for live streaming via her webpage.Ellipse was released in the United Kingdom on 24 August, and in the United States on 25 August.On 15 January 2010, Heap accepted the Grammy Award for Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical for her engineering work on Ellipse.2011–2014: Sparks & hiatusOn 14 March 2011, Heap started work on her forthcoming album, Sparks (then unnamed), as fans sent in nearly 900 sound seeds, or samples of everyday sounds such as a dishwasher door, a bicycle or a burning match. Heap says the concept for this album will be to record one track over a two-week period every three months. Each song and video will be released immediately. According to her website, the album will be completed in roughly three years.[14]The first song, initially entitled #heapsong1 and later retitled Lifeline, premiered worldwide on 28 March 2011 via Ustream[15] along with a live remix by Tim Exile. Lifeline was released on 30 March 2011 as a digital download from Heaps website and via iTunes, Amazon and other digital retailers. Released alongside this was a 12-page 3DiCD package (a 3D virtual CD) including crowd sourced (and paid for) images, the instrumental version of the song, the seeds and solos only version and heap speaks seeds and solos – an-18-minute commentary by Heap on how the sounds and solos were used in Lifeline.On 6 May 2011, Heap tweeted that she and deadmau5 were working on a collaboration.

Its influence can be felt in the lyrics of Kansas 1979 album Monolith. Livgren subsequently rejected Urantia doctrine, and while on tour with the band in support of Monolith, he converted to Christianity. This was a result of a series of debates in the back of the tour bus with Jeff Pollard of Louisianas Le Roux, the opening act for Kansas during the tour. The discussions between Livgren and Pollard concerned whether the Bible or the Urantia Book was the accurate record of the life of Jesus Christ. Because of the debates, Livgren became convinced that the Bible was the genuine record of Christ and that he had been mistaken in following the teachings of the Urantia Book. After a private hotel room conversion experience, he became an evangelical Christian.In 1980, Livgren released his first solo album, Seeds of Change. The album features several members of Kansas, along with Ambrosia singer David Pack and noted heavy metal singer Ronnie James Dio, who sang on the tracks To Live for the King and Mask of the Great Deceiver.Livgren recorded three more albums with Kansas. However, tension was growing among the band members as a result of the increasingly Christian perspective of his lyrics. He was increasingly dissatisfied with the bands musical direction (at least in part due to his newfound faith) and Steinhardt left the band. This led to Livgrens exit from Kansas in 1983.Livgren has continued to appear occasionally with Kansas on various tours since the 1990s and contributed new songs to The Kansas Boxed Set in 1994 (Wheels) and to Freaks of Nature in 1995 (Cold Grey Morning). In 2000, the original and current members of Kansas reunited at Livgrens studio to record a new album written entirely by Livgren, titled Somewhere to Elsewhere. Though the album received very favorable reviews, sales were not comparable to Kansas past successes decades earlier.AD, 1983–1988In 1983, after his departure from Kansas, Livgren recorded his second self-produced album for CBS, Time Line with Hope, Warren Ham, Michael Gleason and drummer Dennis Holt. By the end of the recording sessions, the session musicians had jelled, and he decided to name the group AD.Due to legal entanglements caused by his contractual obligations with Kansas, Livgren was unable to market AD in the mainstream secular market. After negotiating with the record label, he received a waiver to perform with AD in the Christian rock market. Unfortunately, this would become a hindrance to commercial viability for the band. AD toured extensively between 1983 and 1986, sometimes playing bars and clubs one night and then churches the next. Livgren has stated on several occasions that he experienced some of the highest and lowest points in his career during his time with AD. Livgren mentions in his book Seeds of Change: The Spiritual Quest of Kerry Livgren that his time playing live with AD was his best as a guitarist.AD released Art of the State in 1985. Due to financial difficulties, AD faded away in 1986 after releasing the album Reconstructions, though no official breakup was announced. In 1988, Livgren released a collection of previously unreleased AD songs titled Prime Mover. Livgren played all instruments, and all vocals were performed by Ham.In 1997, Livgren rediscovered recordings of two AD performances from 1984 and 1985 that had been recorded by the soundboard engineer. Though they had not been made for release, Livgren remastered them and released them as a thank you to fans on a CD-R title called AD Live. The performances include mistakes and technical problems left intact and is meant as an archival release.Solo years, 1989–2000In 1989, Livgren released his first all-instrumental album, One of Several Possible Musiks. He played all instruments on the album, which combines orchestral, jazz and rock styles. This effort won Livgren his first Dove Award for Instrumental Album of the Year.Livgren then released a double-CD retrospective celebrating 10 years since his first solo recording titled Decade. It included Livgrens first two albums, Seeds of Change and Time Line, in their entirety plus tracks from other albums and previously unreleased songs. Enthusiasts of Livgrens music continue to hold this album in high regard, making it very hard to find.In 1994, after moving back to Topeka, Kansas, Livgren created GrandyZine (presumably a wordplay of the phrase grand design) production company and Numavox Records. He converted a restored barn on his farm into a state-of-the-art recording and production facility.In 1995, Livgren released his next solo album, When Things Get Electric, on his new label. In 1996, he released his first soundtrack for Sonys fourth Minds Eye computer animation feature titled Odyssey into the Minds Eye. In 1998, Livgren mostly re-recorded the album Prime Mover and added five new songs and a new version of Fair Exchange from the Kansas album Vinyl Confessions to the reissue, Prime Mover II. (He reworked and reissued the album again in 2008 as Prime Mover (Redux).)In 2000, Livgren released Collectors Sedition, featuring several vocalists including his nephew, Jake Livgren. At this time, Kerry Livgren was writing new songs prolifically and realized that some of them sounded like Kansas. Kerry called up Phil Ehart and offered him the opportunity to hear the songs. This led to a reunion album with Kansas titled Somewhere to Elsewhere, which featured the then-touring version of Kansas along with Livgren and Dave Hope, the original bassist. The album was recorded at Livgrens Grandyzine Studio in his converted barn where he performed on the album as lead guitarist and keyboardist and produced the album. This was the first time Livgren had written all the songs for a Kansas album.Shortly after the release of Somewhere to Elsewhere, Livgren began work on The Best of Kerry Livgren. Both retrospective and forward-looking, it contains tracks from all his solo releases and some AD tracks. The album also includes two new songs and new recordings of four older songs. Each of these new versions features the original vocalists, including Ham, Gleason and Dio.Proto-Kaw, 2003–presentIn 2003, Cuneiform Records issued a collection of material recorded by Kansas II, the early lineup that had included Livgren, Meredith, Wright, Montre, John Bolton, Rod Mikinski and Brad Schulz, calling the group Proto-Kaw. The band then reformed under that name and released Before Became After in 2004 on Inside Out Records.They released their second album, The Wait of Glory, on January 31, 2006, also on Inside Out Records. Unlike Before Became After, this work was composed of entirely new material written by Livgren as well as a live DVD of Proto-Kaws appearance at the 2005 NEARfest.On May 20, 2007, Proto-Kaw announced that band members were back in the studio working on a new album consisting of new material and reworking older songs from Livgrens solo works. The untitled albums release date was not announced.In December 2008, Livgren announced that Proto-Kaw was no longer together due to the band members other commitments. The CD they had been working on, when and if released, will be a solo release by Livgren with no definite release date.In late 2010, Livgren announced that the members of Proto-Kaw had decided to finish working on the bands partially finished CD. Although he could no longer play guitar or keyboard, Livgren worked diligently with other band members to finish recording the CD and did all the mixing and post-production work at his home studio. On August 6, 2011, the band had a CD release party in Kansas City for their fourth CD, entitled Forth.Other projectsLivgren has resumed work on one of his most ambitious works to date, titled Cantata: The Resurrection of Lazarus. It is an epic, orchestral and vocal composition based on the Biblical story told in John, Chapter 11, and is still in production. It has been in development for more than 20 years and features a large ensemble cast. Numerous vocal talents are being considered for the roles.Livgren also currently teaches an adult Sunday School class at Topeka Bible Church and has posted a theological study on his Web site.Though Livgren is known for his music, he is quick to point out that it is only one of his many pursuits. On his Web site, he quotes his Biography, : Im a family man, I have a role in my church, Im running a record label, a studio, a production company, a farm, and I have more hobbies and interests than there are hours in the day.
