吉他手Robin Guthrie和贝斯手Simon Raymonde于Cocteau Twins解散同年(1997年)成立了一个名为Bella Union的厂牌。很快Robin Guthrie就和同样刚从英国电子乐队Mono离开的Siobhan de Mare组成了一支名为Violet Indiana的乐队,并于2000年在Bella Union发行了首张EP Choke。Violet Indiana的音乐融合了Guthrie招牌式的吉他和De Mare庸懒而自信的嗓音。在2003年,Robin Guthrie推出了首张个人纯器乐专辑Imperial。先把他是否这样就真的能走出Cocteau Twins巨大光圈的怀疑放在一边,3年后,Robin Guthrie推出了第二张个人专辑Continental。2007年推出专辑After the Night Falls和Before the Day Breaks.
Robin Guthrie (born 4 January 1962, in Falkirk, Scotland) is a musician best known as co-founder of the Cocteau Twins. During his career Guthrie has played guitar, bass guitar, keyboards, drums and other musical instruments, in addition to programming, sampling and sound processing. Guthrie also works extensively as a producer and engineer.
Following the break-up of the Cocteau Twins, Guthrie's first solo record, Imperial, was released in 2003 on Bella Union Records. In 2006, Guthrie signed a four album solo deal for Darla Records, the first product of which was the LP Continental. Subsequently, he has released two four-track EPs entitled "Everlasting" and "Waiting for Dawn" (a further solo track, titled "Argenta", can be found on the Darla Records compilation "Little Darla has A Treat For You v.24: Endless Summer Edition"), and two albums in collaboration with Harold Budd: "Before The Day Breaks" and "After The Night Falls".
Guthrie recently wrote his first film score in conjunction with Harold Budd for Gregg Araki's Mysterious Skin. The soundtrack was released in June 2005 by Commotion and consists of fifteen complete songs based on the short pieces used in the film.
Guthrie's latest musical collaboration is Violet Indiana, with singer Siobhan de Maré (formerly of Mono). Violet Indiana's first full-length LP, Roulette, was released in 2001 to much critical acclaim. A second album, Russian Doll, followed in 2004. In March 2006 Guthrie reported on his weblog that the group had started work again on new material.
Guthrie currently works and lives in France with his wife, Florence, their daughter Violette, and Lucy Belle, his daughter with Liz Fraser.
