1985

Caroline Elizabeth Polachek (born June 20, 1985) is an American singer, producer, and songwriter.

Raised in Connecticut, Polachek cofounded the indie pop band Chairlift while studying at the University of Colorado.

Polachek was born in Manhattan, New York City, on June 20, 1985, to James Montel Polachek (1944–2020), a scholar in Chinese history and trained classical musician, and Elizabeth Allan.

Her family relocated to Tokyo, Japan, where she lived between the ages of one and six, and later settled in Greenwich, Connecticut, where Polachek started singing choir in the third grade.

She was a synthesizer player from a young age as her father gave her a Yamaha keyboard to dissuade her from being disruptive on the piano.

1994

Polachek's parents divorced in 1994.

She describes herself as "a very hyperactive kid" and said that they would play Enya at their respective houses to calm her senses.

Polachek recounts her early exposure to traditional Japanese songs and anime themes as being influential on her musical education.

She rode horses growing up.

As a teenager, she began traveling to New York to attend concerts, which were a mix of post-hardcore emo, DIY punk and jazz shows.

Mike Patton of Faith No More once personally walked her into a show at the Knitting Factory when her fake ID was rejected.

She played in a couple of bands in high school and college.

Polachek founded the band Chairlift with musician Aaron Pfenning after the pair met during her sophomore year at the University of Colorado.

2000

The duo emerged from the late-2000s Brooklyn music scene with the sleeper hit "Bruises".

That year, the band released their first EP, Daylight Savings, which was followed by their debut studio album Does You Inspire You in 2008.

In 2008, Polachek formed Girl Crisis choir with twelve other female singers, including members of Au Revoir Simone and Class Actress.

The modular group arranged and recorded two cover versions a year from 2008 to 2013, including songs by Black Sabbath, Nirvana, Leonard Cohen, the Bangles, and Ace of Base.

2010

In 2010, Polachek joined Jorge Elbrecht of Brooklyn-based Violens to record a "sgin" of Justin Bieber's "Never Let You Go": "We went on YouTube to find a video among the highest ranks of hits, and came across 'Never Let You Go'. We went on to make what we call a 'sgin' (anagram of the word 'sing')—an original song written specifically to synch into someone else's video on mute".

The same year, she also recorded a duet with Violens, "Violent Sensation Descends (French Duet Version)".

2011

She later shot and directed the music video for the band's song "It Couldn't Be Perceived" in 2011.
