New signing to Polydor, Years and Years have been making waves through a relentless touring schedule - supporting the likes of MO and Say Lou Lou. However, they are exactly the kind of act that never stays in that position long, effortlessly showing up the headliners through the soaring voice of singer Olly Alexander.
Performing their breakthrough hit 'Real' mashed up with Basement Jaxx's 'Romeo' at Hackney's Oslo for Gigwise, Alexander explained how the songs fit together seamlessly. Combined through key, the lyrics also fixed together perfectly with 'Real', lamenting the rejections of an ex-lover. It's a cathartic anthem to thinking you aren't good enough for someone but growing to realise that they are out of your life now.
Years & Years are going to be huge in 2014, and deservedly so. Find out why, right now
