The xx's Oliver Sim has released his debut solo single.
Romance With A Memory was produced by bandmate Jamie xx and arrives with a horror-inspired video starring RuPaul's Drag Race and Dragula performers Charity Kase, HoSo Terra Toma, and Gena Marvin lip-syncing and dancing.
Anchored by a relaxed beat, it unfurls around upbeat keys and catchy vocals. Sim said in a statement:
"I'm thrilled, excited, ecstatic, over-caffeinated and overjoyed to be sharing Romance With a Memory with you all.
"Terrifyingly, this is the first song I've ever released under my own name, I really hope you all enjoy it. Produced by my dear older brother Jamie xx. P.S still very much in a loving and happy relationship/band with Romy and Jamie."
The xx's last album was 'I See You', released in 2017.
