March 26 street date. Romy (Romy Madley-Croft of The xx) unveils the "Lifetime" remixes 12" featuring reworks of Romy's debut solo track by an all-female and nonbinary cast of musicians, including Planningtorock, Anz and HAAi. "Lifetime" combines Romy's love of yearning, emotional club music with timeless songwriting. Having co-written her band The xx's three acclaimed albums, she's also written songs for Mark Ronson, Jehnny Beth, benny blanco and Dua Lipa (including her Grammy-winning hit single "Electricity" with Ronson and Diplo's Silk City), among others. At the same time as honing her craft as a songwriter, Romy has embraced a burgeoning DJ career. DJing since the age of 17 (when she got her first job playing records at a gay club in Soho), the last twelve months have seen her passion reignited, with appearances at Manchester's Homobloc, Turin's Club to Club and a closing set at this year's Pride Inside for Amnesty. She was also a key contributor to 2019's BBC Radio 1 Residency series.
September 8 street date. UK singer/songwriter and DJ Romy presents her highly-anticipated debut solo album, "Mid Air". Following three acclaimed albums with her band The xx, the 11 track record focuses celebration, sanctuary, and salvation on the dance floor. Dealing with love, grief, relationships, identity and sexuality, it's a love letter to the queer clubs where Romy found community and connection. A coming-out album in a way, although she came out in her personal life a long time ago, but it's also a coming-through album - through grief and heartache, towards euphoria. "Mid Air" sees Romy working alongside producers Fred again.. and Stuart Price, as well as her bandmate Jamie xx. It looks to unify dancefloors, distilling Romy's love of club classics and classic song writing and finding the sweet spot - like much of Romy's favourite music - between euphoria, escapism, sadness and melancholy.
