Leslie & The Ly's
Iowa's gem-sweater laureate turning regional-craft-fair aesthetics into a genuinely committed electro-rap spectacle — bedazzled and completely straight-faced.
Leslie & The Ly's is the project of Leslie Hall, from Ames, Iowa, who first attracted attention online for her collection of decorated gem sweaters before turning that persona into a performing act. The music is synth-driven electro-pop and rap, delivered deadpan, with subjects drawn from Midwestern domestic life, craft culture and the sweaters themselves.
Live, the act leans on choreography, costume — gold spandex and bedazzled knitwear are fixtures — and a backing troupe of dancers. The comedy is real but the commitment is total, and Hall performs the songs straight rather than winking at the audience.
