As anticipation builds for the release of Jamie xx's upcoming album, In Waves, the producer continues to unveil new music ahead of its debut. Adding to the previously released singles, Jamie xx's latest offering titled "Waited All Night" features contributions from his fellow The xx bandmates, Oliver Sim and Romy Madley Croft. This collaboration marks the first time the trio has worked together on a track since 2017.
In a heartfelt statement, Jamie xx expressed gratitude towards Sim and Croft, stating, "Thank you to my two best friends and musical siblings, Oliver and Romy. It's wonderful to have the gang back together, working in new ways, working out new lives. I wouldn't be here without them."
The release of "Waited All Night" follows the band's reunion during an on-stage performance at the Glastonbury Festival earlier this year. The new single is part of a growing collection of tracks from In Waves, which will include previously released songs such as "Dafodil," "All You Children," "Life," "Treat Each Other Right," and "Baddy On The Floor."
In a shared comment, Sim and Croft added, "We've loved collaborating on our recent solo projects, but it's been a while since the three of us came together on one track. We're so pleased that this was the place we met up again. Proud to play a small part in this long-awaited, brilliant album."
Fans can now stream "Waited All Night" on Spotify and Apple Music as they await the full album, In Waves, set to drop on Friday, September 20, 2024.
