The 1st Official Thread of ~La Roux~



La Roux ("The Red Haired One" in French) are an English electropop and synthpop duo made up of singer, keyboardist, co-writer and co-producer Eleanor Jackson (born 12 March 1988), and keyboardist, co-writer and co-producer Ben Langmaid. Jackson describes their respective roles as "very much a half and half sharing situation... not like a singer producer outfit", but also recognizing that it often can "look like a solo act". Their music is influenced by 1980s British synthpop including Yazoo, Erasure, Depeche Mode, The Human League, Heaven 17 and Blancmange.


Has anyone heard of them? I just discovered them about a month ago and I AM inlove!!!! They are so amazing! They're music has a strong electronic kind of 80s sound to it...it's really neat! They're most famous single is Bulletproof I'm pretty sure...I know that's how I discovered them.
Here's links to the videos they have (it wouldn't let me embed it sorry ):
