Sweet Seduction Band Members
Let’s get the introductions out of the way: Sweet Seduction was made up of Elise Kristine Anderson, Alison Ogden, and Haley Gosserand, the final girl group to lock in during Netflix’s Building the Band, which is where their story really kicked off. Three voices, three big personalities, three girls who probably could have started a killer group chat (and did, at least for a little while).
Funny enough, the trio formed through literally listening to each other sing from separate booths—like musical speed-dating but minus the awkward eye contact and sweaty palms. By the time they finally met face-to-face, they’d already committed to the band, which kind of takes the “no backsies” to another level.
Alison, apparently, was pretty set on being the group’s leader right from the start. She’s got that East Coast assertiveness; Maryland pride, am I right? Elise, from Washington, and Haley, Missouri-born and breezily positive, completed the group. They came together through a blend of excitement and, uh, a healthy dose of uncertainty. Elise admitted that she worried her and Alison’s strong-minded personalities might clash—they might be “more Real Housewives than Destiny’s Child,” she joked in one interview. But hey, sometimes you get thunder and lightning when you mix strong energy.
Haley, on the other hand, just wanted the “sisterhood vibes” (relatable). She was ready to sign on early, betting that sometimes it pays off to be open-hearted. Their first live performance—a smoky cover of “Into You” by Ariana Grande—showed off incredible vocals but, let’s put it nicely, their chemistry was more “acquaintances at a wedding” than “inseparable best friends at prom.” They could sing up a storm, though, and sometimes that’s enough.
Is Sweet Seduction Still Together from Building the Band?
No, Sweet Seduction is not still together. The trio fizzled out after a run of drama, awkwardness, and some good old-fashioned musical differences. Which—let’s be real—is about as “girl group” as it gets. Happens to the best of them.
Girl Group Hive post on X(Twitter) reads, "Sweet Seduction is currently not making music together as a group".
Here’s the thing: after their elimination from Building the Band, there wasn’t much in the way of dramatic fighting or tabloid-worthy breakups. If you were expecting a splashy Hollywood feud, sorry to disappoint—no hair-pulling in hotel lobbies, no cryptic tweets, just a quiet, mutual understanding.
According to Haley, “We never talked about staying in a band. We all had different paths, so we moved forward individually.” No hard feelings—just a shared moment, then everyone peeled off to go live their lives.
- Alison wound up traveling through the UK after filming was done, living a little solo adventure.
- Elise and Haley went back home in the US, reconnecting with families and local music scenes.
- They apparently kept a group chat open for a bit, but, as these things go, it slowly faded into the digital abyss (insert a gentle sigh for all the abandoned group texts).
If you’re wondering whether there’s resentment, the answer seems to be a pretty honest no. All three have expressed buckets of respect (and maybe a teaspoon of regret) for one another.
Alison has said she’s totally open to working with Elise and Haley again—“We could work together, we could not. Who knows?” she joked in one recent interview. Elise, crystal clear as ever, said she wishes only happiness and career success for her ex-bandmates. Sweet Seduction? More like Sweet Goodwill at this point.
How Did It Go Wrong?
This is where things get juicy. Sweet Seduction never quite settled into a groove. Alison’s leadership style apparently rubbed her bandmates the wrong way here and there, and despite some strong performances (they could belt!), there’s a difference between singing well together and actually being a band.
There were little anecdotes—like Alison vetoing song choices, Elise hoping for more democracy, and Haley just trying to make everyone laugh when rehearsals got tense. Someone said it was a bit like three captains trying to steer the same ship, except the ship was facing a thunderstorm on live TV. They never really had a “let’s break up” conversation; it just kind of… faded away. In a way, it’s almost more human—no dramatic endings, just a quiet agreement that it wasn’t working.
What’s Next for the Sweet Seduction Members?
If you’re the type who checks ex-band member Instagrams, you’ll find the three are still cheering each other on from the sidelines. Elise and Haley have both dived back into solo music, while Alison, well, she’s apparently living her “Eat, Pray, Love” moment on some hiking trail in Wales—not a bad way to process a band breakup, honestly.
And who knows? Maybe someday they’ll all end up at the same karaoke bar and decide to give “Into You” one more shot, just for nostalgia’s sake. Stranger things have happened.
- Alison: Expect sharp takes, big vocals, maybe a jazz EP in 2026?
- Elise: Ambient pop feels, sweet Instagram snippets from her bedroom studio.
- Haley: If you see a cheerful voice at an open mic in Kansas City, it might just be her.
