watch the video for The xx's "On Hold"
The xx have shared the video for infectious new single “On Hold.” Shot in Marfa, TX (where the band wrote and recorded some of their new album), director Alasdair McLellan paints a vivid portrait of small town high school life, complete with football, parties and romance. The band add, “We have a lot of love and respect for the people of the USA, having played hundreds of shows across the country over the past years. We hope this video reflects just some of the warmth and acceptance we have encountered there.” Watch the video, which is slightly NSFW, above.
The xx’s new album, I See You, is out January 13 via Young Turks. The band haven’t announced North American shows yet, but they’ve got lots of dates elsewhere in the world, now through the spring. Those dates are listed below.
