La Roux is an English synth-pop act formed in 2008 by singer Elly Jackson and record producer Ben Langmaid. The act's debut album, La Roux, was released in 2009 and received critical and commercial acclaim, winning a Grammy Award and producing hit singles such as 'In for the Kill' and 'Bulletproof'. The recording of a follow-up album was hindered by unsuccessful collaborations, the cancellation of two planned release dates, and reported conflicts between Jackson and Langmaid. Langmaid left the group in 2012, after which Jackson released her second album, Trouble in Paradise, in 2014, under the same stage name. The album was met with critical praise but did not achieve significant commercial success, and La Roux parted ways with Polydor Records. Jackson released her third album, Supervision, independently in 2020.
