I've heard of La Roux and slightly heard their song "Bulletproof" from time to time (and it's actually their third single from their 2009 self-titled debut album) but this morning I decided to put VH1 - and to my surprise there was a video on! It was La Roux's "Bulletproof" video. It may seem like a solo act, but it's actually a duo. The British electropop and synthpop duo are made up of singer Eleanor Jackson and synthesizer player, co-writer and co-producer Ben Langmaid. According to the group, the name came from lead singer's Jackson's hair color. Their look and sound is very much along the lines of 80s synthpop...yet their style and sound reminded me of last year's breakout star, Lady Gaga. So what do you guys think of La Roux? A major artist in the making?
