Sleigh Bells

A band with beginnings worthy of the silver screen, Sleigh Bells play Amsterdam's Melkweg as part of 5 Days Off.

The story so far...

Derek Miller embarked on a journey from west to east America in search of a female vocalist for a new musical project. He found work in a restaurant where local singster Alexis Krauss regularly had a bite to eat. A chat, a click and Sleigh Bells was born.

Beautifully hardcore

Derek's hardcore background is still evident in his electronic compositions - overdriven synthesisers, guitars and thumping beats roll into one, beautifully complemented by Alexis' delicate yet powerful vocals.
