Local/Indie Music - "Crown on the Ground" by Sleigh Bells

"Is Brooklyn the new Seattle?" I think there has been enough evidence to suggest the answer to this question is inevitably - YES.

One Brooklyn-based group that has caught my ear lately is noise-rock/pop duo Sleigh Bells. Hardly 2 years since their original formation, Sleigh Bells is already starting to make a name for themselves and have already dropped their first album entitled "Treats" as of May 2010.

Alexis Krauss (vocals) was working at a Brazilian restaurant when Derek E. Miller (guitar, songwriter, producer) mentioned he needed vocals for a music project he was working on. They started collaborating and shortly thereafter, Sleigh Bells was formed. Their concerts are apparently high energy, wild and not to be missed. I hope to see them live sometime soon. You should too. Take a listen...
