**The xx** is that dreamy UK trio (Jamie xx, Oliver Sim, and Romy Madley Croft) who’ve been turning quiet hooks into stadium-sized anthems since 2009. Did you know Jamie xx’s side project *We’re New Here* (2011) gave Gil Scott-Heron a futuristic glow-up? Or that their 2021 album *Collapse* dropped right when the world needed its moody, bass-heavy hugs?

Hit tracks like *"Angels"* and *"On Hold"* prove their magic—still packing crowds from Mexico City to São Paulo. And with Jamie’s solo work and Romy’s solo debut dropping in 2024, the xx’s vibe isn’t going anywhere. Just low-key genius.
