- Sarah Cracknell is an English pop singer who fronts the band Saint Etienne and is known for her light, smooth singing voice. She is the daughter of Stanley Kubrick's first assistant director Derek Cracknell. Saint Etienne was originally to be an indie/dance act featuring various vocalists. After Moira Lambert sang on their initial 1990 single "Only Love Can Break Your Heart" and Donna Savage was heard on the follow-up single "Kiss and Make Up," Cracknell lent her vocals to "Nothing Can Stop Us" and ended up doing the rest of the singing on their debut album Foxbase Alpha. Cracknell has been Saint Etienne's permanent vocalist since then. Preceded by the single "Anymore" in 1996, Cracknell released a solo album, Lipslide, in May 1997. Originally released in the UK only by Gut Records, the album featured dance, indie and pop tunes and received good reviews from critics, although it was not a big seller (Cracknell has in interviews placed some of the blame for this on lack of proper promotion by Gut). The UK version of the album is now out of print. Lipslide finally surfaced in the U.S. three years later, when Instinct Records released it in February 2000. With completely different cover art, the original album's tracklisting was also modified: five tracks were removed and four new songs plus a remix were added. Months later, Instinct released the Kelly's Locker EP, which contained the five tracks originally removed from the UK version of Lipslide, along with two previously unreleased songs and a new remix. Cracknell was Spiller's first choice for the vocals of his number-one hit "Groovejet (If This Ain't Love)" in 2000, but never got to record the song. She has recorded tracks with various artists such as David Holmes ("Anymore", "Gone"), Xploding Plastix ("Sunset Spirals"), Cheapglue ("You've Just Won Me Over") and Paul Van Dyk. Sarah has recorded a duet "I Close My Eyes And Count To Ten" (formerly by Dusty Springfield) with Marc Almond for his album Stardom Road, released June 2007. In December 2007, BBC radio began playing "The Journey Continues" by Mark Brown featuring Sarah Cracknell. The song consists of extensive samples from a composition by Elena Kats-Chernin entitled Eliza's Aria, well known to UK TV viewers as the music from the computer-animated 'For the Journey' commercials for Lloyds TSB bank. The single was released on February 2008 on Positiva. The song peaked at #11 in the UK after being released. Cracknell married Martin Kelly (joint MD of Heavenly Recordings) in Kensington and Chelsea, London on 5 December 2004. They have two children, both born in Westminster, London: Spencer Michael (born 2001) and Sam Dion (born 2004).

- Sarah Cracknell est une chanteuse britannique née le 12 avril 1967 à Chelmsford, dans l'Essex. Elle est l'interprète du groupe Saint Etienne. À l'origine, Saint Etienne se veut un groupe de dance avec plusieurs interprètes. Après Moira Lambert sur leur premier titre Only Love can break your Heart et Donna Savage sur le titre suivant Kiss and Make Up, c'est au tour de Sarah pour Nothing can stop us, et c'est finalement elle que l'on entend sur tous les autres titres de leur premier album Foxbase Alpha. Depuis lors, elle est l'interprète attitrée du groupe. Après un single Anymore en 1996, Sarah Cracknell sort un album solo Lipslide en 1997. D'abord seulement disponible en Grande-Bretagne sous le label Gut Records, l'album mélange des tonalités dance, indie et pop, et connaît un bon succès critique mais peu de ventes (dans une interview, Sarah avouera plus tard que selon elle, Gut Records n'avait pas suffisamment assuré la promotion de l'album). Ce n'est que 3 ans plus tard que l'album parvient aux États-Unis, lorsque Instinct Records le publie en février 2000. Outre une couverture totalement modifiée, l'album est profondément remanié puisque 5 titres disparaissent pour laisser place à 4 nouveautés et 1 remix. Quelques mois après, Instinct sort l'Extended Play Kelly's Locker, contenant les 5 titres précédemment supprimés ainsi que 2 chansons plus anciennes et 1 remix. En 2000, Sarah Cracknell refuse l'offre de Spiller qui cherchait une voix pour son titre Groovejet (If This Ain't Love) qui sera n° 1 dans de nombreux pays. Elle collaborera néanmoins avec de nombreux artistes tels que David Holmes (Anymore, Gone), Xploding Plastix (Sunset Spirals), Cheapglue (You've just won me over) et Paul van Dyk (Tell me why). Elle épouse Martin Kelly (de Heavenly Records) le 5 décembre 2004. Ils ont 2 enfants.
