				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Indie rock band The xx might not have released any new stuff as of recent, but that doesn’t mean its members haven’t been busy elsewhere.  Last month Oliver Sim released his first solo single, “<em>Romance With a Memory</em>“, which was followed last week by “<em>Fruit</em>“. Sim had <a href="https://www.nme.com/news/music/jamie-xx-announces-return-with-new-single-arriving-this-week-3202411">this to say</a> on the release: “<em>Terrifyingly, this is the first song I’ve ever released under my own name, I really hope you all enjoy it.</em>”</p>
<p>On the bright side, despite all this work apart from each other, it doesn’t appear that there’s a rift growing between The xx’s. Sim made sure to mention <a href="https://www.nme.com/news/music/jamie-xx-announces-return-with-new-single-arriving-this-week-3202411">that he was</a> “<em>still very much in a loving and happy relationship/band with Romy and Jamie</em>”, noting that bandmate Jamie xx actually helped produce the singles. It obviously sparked Jamie’s own solo aspirations with him, in turn, announcing the release of a new single for tomorrow.<br />

Jamie’s new song is reportedly titled “<em>Let’s Do It Again</em>“, and he let his followers know on Instagram that “<em>I had a lot of fun trying this one out at festivals last year. You might recognise it…</em>“.</p>

The band have been content leaving fans wanting for more ever since their acclaimed 2017 album “<em>I See You</em>“, which reached no. 1 on the <a href="https://www.officialcharts.com/artist/5799/xx/">UK Official Albums Chart</a>. It&#8217;s is still their most recent studio album, but there’s hope for more soon. A few clues are in the air, such as a post on their social media last December showing the group working together.</p>
<p>Also, it doesn’t even have to be music that they do together. They’ve already started a new radio show on Apple Music, with instalments once a month. Each episode supposedly has a different member of The xx talking about their inspirations and speaking to guests.</p>
<p>Called <em>Interludes Radio</em>, it began last month with Sim hosting. The band’s official statement <a href="https://www.nme.com/news/music/jamie-xx-announces-return-with-new-single-arriving-this-week-3202411">advertises it as</a> <em>“An hour of music, guests and sneak peeks of what we’re all up to on our own and together”.</em></p>
<p>If you want to see any of them live, Jamie xx has some gigs coming up on September 3<sup>rd</sup>, playing at Forwards Bristol in Clifton Downs. You can get tickets <a href="https://www.ticketmaster.co.uk/jamie-xx-tickets/artist/1506392">here</a>. Sims also has some solo tour dates coming up in May, including one in London&#8217;s Shoreditch Town Hall on the 10th. Otherwise, he&#8217;ll also be seen around Europe and America, visiting the likes of Berlin, Paris, Los Angeles and  New York. You can get tickets for these dates <a href="https://oliver-sim.com/fruit-tour/">here</a> from Wednesday 10 am. If you want to access the tour&#8217;s pre-sale tomorrow at 10 am, best sign-up before 6 pm tonight using the previous link.</p>
