One of the most important debuts in recent years, The xx are a real phenomenon on British music scene. Their ever-growing popularity is not an effect of marketing strategies, but of real emotions. And these, even after a year of silence from the band, make The xx one of the most talked-about band in the world, therefore we are even happier to announce Heineken Open’er as one of two festivals, along Primavera Sound, to feature The xx in their line-up the next festival season. Their performance will promote a new album, to be out in the spring of 2012. The follow-up to their debut album is one of the most awaited releases next year, and one of the best guarded secret projects in progress.
