The XX in Manila on July 30

English indie-pop trio The XX is set to stage their first concert performance here in Manila on July 30, 2013 at the NBC Tent in Bonifacio Global City in Taguig.

The award-winning band has an extensive discography. Their debut record Formation was followed up by their successful self-titled album xx in 2009, earning them a nifty ninth place on Rolling Stone’s “Best of the Year” list.

The album includes hits like Crystalised, Shelter, and Stars.

Crystalised – The xx

 Their third album, Co-Exist, distinctive for the addition of a club music, was also a huge draw. The band chose the cut Angels to be their carrier single and it enjoyed massive play time on the radio and even more views on YouTube.

The band has also played at five major music festivals in the U.S. like Coachella and Lollapalooza. Their track ‘Together is also featured as one of the soundtracks of the 2013 movie adaptation of “The Great Gatsby” headlined by Hollywood stars Leonardo Dicaprio, Tobey McGuire, and Carey Mulligan.

Tickets are P5,880 for the Gold section and P3,960 for the Silver section. At those prices, as we like to say in Manila, “mapapa-XX ka talaga!
