The amazing La Roux

La Roux is a British electropop/synth duo that has been causing quite a buzz in the last few months, and that, surprisingly given the type of music they make, has had a major hit in the uk with the amazing 'In For The Kill'. La Roux consists of singer and synth player Eleanor Jackson (known as Elly) and co-writer and co-producer Ben Langmaid. So far the group has released 3 singles: Quicksand, In For The Kill and more recently Bulletproof, their self-titled debut album is to be released on July 29th. I must say right now it's the album I'm looking forward to the most! If most of the tracks are as good as the singles so far, it'll definitely turn out to be one of the best of the year.
