Sleigh Bells
Offiziell Bestätigt
Based in Brooklyn, New York, the duo is composed of Derek E. Miller (songwriter, guitarist, producer) and Alexis Krauss (vocals). The duo met and formed in 2008, when Miller was waiting tables on Alexis and her mother in a diner. Miller mentioned he was looking for a female vocalist to work with on a musical project, for which Alexis' mother immediately volunteered her. Miller was formerly the guitarist for the post-hardcore band Poison the Well and Krauss was a member of the teen pop group Rubyblue as a teenager.
The duo have released several tracks online, which have gained attention from the New York Times, Pitchfork Media, ABC's Amplified, and other sources. Pitchfork named their song "Crown on the Ground" the 57th best track of 2009. They performed at the 2010 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in April 2010, and will play the Pitchfork Music Festival.
The group released "Tell 'Em" as a free download, the first single from their debut album, Treats, which will be released on May 11, 2010 through M.I.A.'s N.E.E.T. Recordings in partnership with Mom + Pop Records.
