[Watch] The xx Debut New Tracks Live in London
Last night, The xx performed their second in a trio of intimate shows they announced last week. It was at London's Chats Palace ahead of their summer festival slots and tickets for the show could be won in a lottery on their official site. Whilst there they performed a brand new track, several in fact according to NME who have their set-list.
Being as every show nowadays has footage online just hours after it has occurred, some fan shot videos of the performance hit Youtube and some of it can be seen at the top. We've been awaiting some more new material from the trio for quite some time as they've been busy making some new music in the studio so it's nice to have some more to go on following their demo, "Open Eyes" last Christmas. With them set to play Battersea Arts Centre on Friday maybe we can expect some more footage to emerge. Watch this space.
Upcoming tour dates can be seen after the jump.
