La Roux Goes Live with New Music and Announces Tour Dates
After a 5-year break, the British electro-pop act La Roux is back with a new single.
The singer has also shared the news about the upcoming album, along with a set of 2020 tour dates.
For some time recently, La Roux aka. Elly Jackson gave the fans a hint about her comeback with a series of social media posts. Then she released her new single, “International Woman of Leisure”, a funky disco-inspired track which kind of sums up what’s been going on with her.
Originally a duo, Elly Jackson is now the sole member of La Roux.
Jackson started La Roux in 2006 with her then-musical partner and record producer Ben Langmaid. He exited the band before the release of the last La Roux record Trouble in Paradise in July 2014. Jackson then went on to explain the reason for the split:
“I came to [Langmaid] with some rare disco references and he made it very clear he didn’t like them. There wasn’t a great deal of understanding,”
The “Bulletproof” singer hasn’t released any solo material in quite a bit, though she had some collaborations here and there, like songs with Kanye West and New Order. In 2018, she teamed up with Whyte Horses for “The Best of It” and, earlier this year, guested on the track “Gone, Gone/Thank You” from Tyler, the Creator’s latest album, Igor.
Jackson overcame the problems with her voice, and issues with anxiety. Now, happier then ever, she will be glad to introduce the upcoming album Supervision, which will be out on February 7th, 2020.
In support of Supervision, LA Roux will be going on a 2020 North American Tour which will start on March 2nd in Toronto and wrap March 25th in Los Angeles.
