Emerging Talent: Sleigh Bells

As most of you know, this March is Emerging Talent Month here on Buzznet, where people will post about their favorite emerging musicians, actors, artists, designers, and etc. For my first emerging talent, I choose one of my favorite music duo’s, Sleigh Bells.

Sleigh Bells consists of lead singer Alexis Krauss and guitar player Derek Edward, who make some of the most interesting music that’s unlike anything I’ve ever heard before. I guess their sound could be defined as a mix of noise rock, experimental music, dance punk and digital hardcore. It all started in 2008 when Derek, who was looking to find a singer to jam with, met singer Alexis at a resteraunt. The two started a conversation and the rest is history. The duo’s debute album, Treats, was released in 2010 and two years later, in 2012, the duo released their second album Reign of Teror.

Here is the music video for Comeback Kid, which is off of their second album, Reign of Terror. Hope you enjoy!

With Derek’s loud guitar playing and Alexis with her very high singing voice, the duo is definitly unique! I can’t wait to see what great things Sleigh Bells will achieve in the future and what is to come with their music. If I were you I would definitly keep an eye out for Sleigh Bells in the future.

XoXo,
