Biography

Elastica

Chipperfield joined the band Elastica in early 1996 a year after original bassist Annie Holland left, and she became an especially close collaborator of Donna Matthews during a period when Matthews became a more dominant creative force than bandleader Justine Frischmann.[1] She was asked to leave the group when Frischmann convinced Holland to return in 1998 (which eventually led to Matthews quitting).[2] Years later, Frischmann called Chipperfield a "clean-living young chick" who was one of the only members not to use heroin in a difficult period for the band.[3]
