The xx breaks Brixton records with two new shows

The xx have this morning extended their run at London’s O2 Brixton Academy next year to seven consecutive nights.

The trio looks set to break a Brixton record for the longest run of sold out shows at the iconic South London venue, this also meaning they’ll perform to 35,000 people in their hometown next March.

The previously announced five shows have all sold out.

These dates are a part of their ‘I See You’ European and UK tour, which kicks off in Stockholm, Sweden, February 8 and includes stops in Nottingham, Cardiff and Manchester. Check out the full tour schedule below.

Also watch the official music video for “On Hold,” from the band’s forthcoming album ‘I See You,’ available January 13th 2017.
