It’s only the early stages of 2017 and the British band from Wandsworth, London, The XX, will start the year debuting their third studio album, “I See You.” The project will be out on Friday, Jan. 13.
With this album, The XX has previewed the use of tropical rhythms and great vocals to better their upbeat, electronic sound. In November, the band released the album’s lead single “On Hold.” It was a song with a catchy beat and dream pop melody that reached No. 3 on the UK Indie Chart of 2016.
Earlier this year, the band released their second single, “Say Something Loving,” in which percussion instruments make a clear and delightful appearance throughout the track.
So far the band has released two out of the ten tracks in the album. After the release of their album, the indie band will go on tour in Europe and the United States. With the news of the upcoming album and tour, Jamie XX, Romy Madley Croft and Oliver Sim all make up the highly anticipated wait that fans have been expecting from The XX.
