The duo's eponymous debut studio album was released in June 2009, reaching number two on the UK Albums Chart and number seven on the Irish Albums Chart. [2] [3] The album was eventually certified platinum by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) and the Irish Recorded Music Association (IRMA). [4] [5] In 2011, La Roux won a Grammy Award for Best Electronic/Dance Album. [6] Four singles were released from the album: " Quicksand", " In for the Kill", " Bulletproof" and " I'm Not Your Toy". "Bulletproof" peaked at number one on the UK Singles Chart and was certified gold by the BPI. [3] [4] Following Langmaid's departure from La Roux, Jackson released La Roux's second studio album, Trouble in Paradise, in July 2014.
