The musical duo based in Brooklyn, New York, consisting of vocalist Alexis Krauss and guitarist/producer Derek E. Miller are coming to Orlando.
Sleigh Bells are back with their first new music in more than three years, and the noise-pop duo of singer Alexis Krauss and producer-guitarist Derek Miller are hitting the road in support of the newtrack, Wanna Start A Band?
According to Krauss, the track dates back to over a decade ago. “Derek started messing with the riff for this song around 2014 — it needed a lot of work, but a spark was there,” she explained. “We had a band by then but didn’t know how long it would last. For us, this song is a reminder of how we started but it’s also the first part of a new story we want to tell—more on that very soon! We hope you will come along for the ride.”
Sleigh Bells’ upcoming tour will take to the stage at The Plaza Live on Thursday, May 29, with tickets still available.

Sleigh Bells is an American duo formed in 2008, featuring vocalist Alexis Krauss and guitarist/producer Derek Miller. Their sound blends elements of noise pop, punk, and electro, characterized by explosive guitar riffs, pounding beats, and infectious melodies. The band gained widespread attention with their debut album Treats (2010), a high-energy mix of distortion and pop hooks, highlighted by the breakout track "Rill Rill."
Following Treats, their sophomore album Reign of Terror (2012) refined their sound, incorporating darker, more personal themes while retaining their raw intensity. With Bitter Rivals (2013), they embraced a more aggressive, pop-driven approach, and their 2016 album Jessica Rabbit saw them exploring experimental textures and atmospheric production. Texis (2021) marked another shift, blending elements of early electro, new wave, and hip-hop influences.
Throughout their career, Sleigh Bells has become known for their high-energy live shows and genre-defying sound, pushing boundaries in indie and alternative music. Their fearless approach to production and songwriting has earned them a dedicated fanbase and a lasting influence on a new generation of experimental artists.
