2009 Album Releases: LA ROUX - LA ROUX

La Roux, a British duo that dabbles in electro-pop and synthesizer based music. Elly Jackson fronts the band but she is very much in partnership with Ben Langmaid, co-songwriter. Their style is influenced by 80s music E.g. Depeche Mode and Elly herself has a distinct often outrageous personal style which is increasingly becoming the norm in music and on the High Street. All of you can sample her first three singles below. By the way, sorry about the lack of embedding its been disabled by the record company so you're gonna have to click on the actual name of the song.
