Winners will be announced on or around August 3, 2009. La Roux is set to hit the shores of North America for a slew of highly
anticipated performances this summer. Twenty-one year-old Elly Jackson and producer co-hort Ben Langmaid, the talented South London duo who make up La Roux, have made an impressive impact on the UK’s music scene since joining forces just two years ago. While collaboration began in London’s burgeoning underground warehouse scene, it is has since landed on daytime radio and the upper echelons of the British charts.
The single, “In For The Kill”, recently reached #2 and sustained its position for a solid four weeks.
“In For The Kill” is also the UK’s biggest selling single by a UK artist of the year and has sold 500,000 copies and counting.
The self-titled debut full-length will be released in October on Cherrytree Records in the US.
For a taste of the party that’s to come, check out the stunning video of US single “Bulletproof” which will surely coax revelers to the dance floor on La Roux’s upcoming tour.

Here's the hype.. get into it!
“Hooks so huge you could use them to raise the Titanic”
“A dream version of how modern pop should be”
“(The) self-titled full-length debut sports sub-zero cyber melodies, but much like her frosty foremother Annie Lennox, La Roux injects a healthy dose of emotional turmoil into her songwriting.”
“Her current single, Quicksand (Kitsune), clones the froideur of Jackson's favourite decade with love and skill, and makes for nagging pop with emotional substance. Clearly, La Roux has greater ambitions than just getting poseurs to dance.”
