Jamie XX performs live ‘Loud Places’ from the album “In Colour”
The artist gave a wonderful live performance on the set of the TV show “Le Grand Journal”
Jamie XX released his debut solo LP In Colour this year via Young Turks Records. He stopped by French TV show Le Grand Journal to perform the track “Loud Places” from the album with XX bandmates Romy Madley-Croft and Oliver Sim, as well as Warpaint’s Stella Mozgawa and a choir.
What Joni Mitchell’s “Woodstock” was to the hippie era, Jamie xx’s solo debut is to British club culture: a wistful valentine conjuring a more innocent time. Exhibit A is “Gosh,” which flips a sound bite from a pioneering U.K. jungle broadcast. But the track isn’t jungle per se, because the head chef of the xx shoots for moods, not rote styles — which is why he’s among pop’s greatest producers. –
