Gazelle Twin is the stage name of Elizabeth Bernholz (née Walling),[1][2] a British composer, producer and musician from Brighton, England.[3]

Walling conceived the project when she watched Fever Ray perform at the 2009 Loop Festival. She noted how "her show reminded me how powerful and liberating costume is, and I became interested in the power of disguise".[4]

Her debut album, The Entire City, was released in July 2011 to critical acclaim.[5] The album includes her two previously recorded singles, "Changelings" (2010) and "I Am Shell I Am Bone" (2011). In 2014 Gazelle Twin released her second album, Unflesh, to further critical praise.[6] She has also remixed music by John Foxx.[7] She married the local musician Jez Bernholz who also performs with her on-stage.[2]
