Describing herself as the "falsetto in the ghetto", UK-based Elly Jackson is the 20 year-old female front of La Roux . Elly's got a honeyed voice that could possibly be sandwiched in between Ladyhawke and CSS . La Roux's just released her first single, "Quicksand" on the French imprint Kitsune and the track is full of electro flavor. Something I can't wait to hear more of. Download | La...
Here's the video for La Roux's debut single "Quicksand". I don't know much about La Roux, but she's kind of a guilty pleasure for me. Based on many factors, some which probably shouldn't come in to play (what the fuck is up with her hair?, she reminds me of Peter Pan), this doesn't seem like something I should enjoy. But I do.

La Roux has been getting some crazy buzz lately. I've only heard a few tracks, but she (they, it's a duo, but I've only ever seen her) comes with some really catchy pop and she's got that "You may not fully understand me because I'm slightly cooler than most people you know" image to back it up. Check out her latest leak, and look out for her debut which is set to drop next week. Saw it at Moss...
