Person attributes
Remington Leith Kropp is the frontman and vocalist of the indie art-rock band Palaye Royale, which he formed in 2008 with his brothers Sebastian Danzig and Emerson Barrett under another name ( Kropp Circle ). At the end of 2011 they became Palaye Royale.
Remington was born on May 5, 1994. Like his brothers, his last name at birth was Kropp, but they recently changed their last names - Leith is now Remington's official last name.
He and the band formed in Las Vegas, Nevada, and later moved to Los Angeles, California.
Remington didn't want to be a soloist; after classical training in piano and music theory and finally choosing another instrument, all that was left was bass or vocals--Emerson and Sebastian had already taken drums and guitar. The first gig they did when Remington was about 10 years old (they did a cover of a Black Crowes song and a Hansen song), he was completely petrified and could barely sing. It took him several years to get completely over his stage fright.
After moving to Los Angeles, the brothers rented a house until one day they moved back in and were evicted (and all their belongings stolen). Eventually Remington and Emerson had to stay in a hotel - there was only enough money to stay there for 6 days - and they stole food (including lunches) from the 7-11 across the street. Luckily, they were signed by Sumerian Records on the fourth day.
In 2017, Remington recorded vocals for the movie American Satan; his singing voice was used for the main character Johnny Faust (played by Andy Biersack), lead singer of the fictional band The Relentless.
