Come anticipato, The xx sono stati ospiti di Annie Mac su BBC Radio 1 nel giorno dell’annuncio del nuovo album, I See You.
Nell’intervista, Oliver Sim ha confermato quanto sospettato dopo l’ascolto del singolo On Hold:
“I think it’s quite an eclectic album. On the whole, it’s a poppier kind of moment that’s been influenced by a lot of what Jamie’s done. For the first time ever making this album, we had songs to pick and choose to make an album, so these are 10 of our absolute favorites that we’ve made in the past couple of years. I like to think there’s a lot of joy on this album whereas maybe that’s not something people have associated with us.”

I The xx saranno gli ospiti musicali della puntata del 19 novembre del Saturday Night Live.
