THE FUSE

Elly Jackson has always built her musical project La Roux around a simple premise: resurfacing something from pop music. Her 2009 self-titled debut mined the ’80s, 2014’s Trouble in Paradise excavated late ’70s and early ’80s disco and 2020’s Supervision stayed in that world a bit longer. The first album shot her to global fame via its pair of hit singles “Bulletproof” — which spent 27 weeks at the Hot 100 and peaked at No. 8 — and “In For the Kill,” both era-defining songs whose success the English artist once found unmooring.
