La Roux are a British electropop synth duo band made up of singer and synth player Elly Jackson, and co-writer and co-producer Ben Langmaid, with Jackson describing their respective roles as "very much a half and half sharing situation... not like a singer producer outfit", but also recognising that it often can "look like a solo act". Their music is influenced by 1980s synth pop including Human League, Heaven 17, Blancmange and Yazoo.

"Quicksand", was released by the Kitsuné Music record label in November, 2008. Polydor are set to release La Roux's debut album in 2009. La Roux's second single "In for the Kill" was released on 16 March, 2009, and prominent dubstep producer Skream has created a remix of the track as well as one being made by Lifelike. "In for the Kill" debuted at number 11 in the UK Singles Chart on 22 March 2009, peaking at number 2 to date. "Bulletproof" was released on the 22 June 2009 and debuted at number 1 in the UK Singles Chart.
