Born in Boston, Massachusetts, Berry's mother was a jazz singer with French-Canadian roots, and her father was an actor. The family moved to London in the early 1970s. Introduced to Creation Records by Pete Astor in 1987, Berry recorded Firefly, a six-song mini-album. A full-length album Below the Waves followed in 1989.
In 1991, Ivo Watts-Russell asked Berry to sing on the third album by This Mortal Coil, and over the next five years she recorded three albums for 4AD.
Berry now teaches at the Brighton Institute of Modern Music.
