100 gecs (/ˈwʌn ˈhʌndrəd ˈɡɛks/[1]) is an American musical duo formed in 2015 that consists of Dylan Brady and Laura Les. They self-released their debut album, 1000 gecs, in 2019 to positive reviews, followed by a companion remix album, 1000 gecs and the Tree of Clues, in 2020. They released their second studio album, 10,000 gecs, in 2023. Their music has been noted for its often chaotic yet catchy mixture of various styles,[2][3] and has been described as helping to define the 2010s genre hyperpop.[4]
