The XX Announce UK and European Tour for 2017.

The London-based indie/dream pop band have announced a string of headline shows for early next year, including dates at UK arenas.


The band announced their third album "I See You", which was recorded in studios across Europe and the US, earlier this year. It's the long-awaited follow-up to their 2012 critically acclaimed album "Coexist". They also released a new single titled "On Hold" which you can listen to here.

The dates will see the band perform together for the first time since 2014 and are their biggest shows to date. The three-piece have announced shows including Nottingham's Motorpoint Arena and Cardiff's Motorpoint Arena, as well as a string of successive nights at Brixton o2 Academy in London.

The tour comes off the back of an extremely successful couple years for band member Jamie XX, after releasing his full-length electronic debut solo album last year he's been touring worldwide to much praise from both fans and critics alike.

The XX also have a string of shows announced for the remainder of this year, including shows in Croatia, Poland, and Japan.
