La Roux

La Roux was scheduled to play the brand new Lincoln Hall tonight, but had to cancel due to illness (already rescheduled for 2/1/10). I've caught some flack for enjoying La Roux's music, but I'm not quite sure why. La Roux's sound is like the Knife and Robyn had a baby. La Roux combines the darkness of the former and the pop of the latter, all the while keeping the infectious beats that made both Robyn and the Knife successful.

Here's a clip of La Roux performing the totally awesome "Bulletproof" at Germany's Melt! Festival this summer...
